Description: | Lithic waste flake probably of late Mesolithic or early Neolithic date due to the quantity of blades and blade cores present at the same find spot. Previous flakes have been removed from the surface of the flint. A bulb of percussion and impact ripples are present on the ventral surface. The flint is mid-grey with cream patches. 10% grey cortex survives on the distal end. The flint is unpatinated but has some post-depositional damage due to agricultural activity (chipped edges). The flake dimensions are 61.68mm long, 44.52mm wide, 12.67mm thick and it weighs 36.13 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: | -6500
