Description: | Lithic blade, probably of late Mesolithic or early Neolithic date due to the quantity of blades and blade cores present at the same find spot. The proximal end has been reworked on both the dorsal and ventral surfaces with semi-abrupt removals. Also, retouch, as a saw-like cutting edge - denticulated edge on the right dorsal mesial edge. Impact ripples are present on both surfaces of the blade. The mid-grey flint is unpatinated and has some post-depositional damage due to agricultural activity (chipped edges). The dimensions are 62.51mm long, 31.33mm wide, 9.73mm thick and it weighs 22.73 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
