Description: | Uncertain lithic implement, probably of Mesolithic or Neolithic date. The artefact has been knapped from dark grey flint with white specks. The flint has snapped, removing the distal end. It is possibly a fragment of a blade, however there are no dorsal blade scars, thus it is unlikely to have been removed from a prepared blade core. The form of the implement resembles a scraper, however the size of the artefact makes this unlikely. The fragment is 17.31mm long, 12.91mm across at the widest point, has a maximum thickness of 3.08mm and weighs 0.91 grams. | 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: | -8300
