Description: | A knapped flint flake, possibly a tool. In plan the flake is linear with one terminal forming a point. The other terminal is broken, therefore the bulb of percussion on the ventral surface is missing, but the concentric rings are missing. In section the object is triangular and then trapezoidal. The dorsal surface has negative vertical scars, and some possible re-touching along the edges of the point. The flint is a dark grey/brown colour and is slightly opaque. It measures 31.82mm long and 15.72mm wide. It weighs 1.8g.
The flakes is probably prehistoric, probably dating to the Neolithic or early Bronze Age (-3500 to -1500). | 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: | -3500
