Description: | Lithic implement. Hazel Martingell notes: This is an early Neolithic knife or dagger, c.4000-3000BC. The worked on blade with a serrated edge was probably used for cutting cereals, reeds or meat. The missing butt end was probably in a haft and got broken off.
The flint is light grey in colour with small patches of creamy white. The implement is 86.4mm long, 25.24mm wide, 8.46mm at the thickest point and weighs 12.94g. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | -4000
