Description: | A retouched flint flake, probably dating from the Neolithic period or early Bronze Age. At the proximal end is the striking platform, part of which appears to have broken off, below which on the ventral side is the bulb of percussion. Ripples radiate down the ventral side. There are flaking scars on the dorsal side and one lateral edge has been retouched by pressure-flaking. The mid greyish-brown flint has a mid gloss patina.
Dimensions: 26.74mm by 22.55mm by 5.7mm
