Description: | Later Neolithic/ ?Bronze Age flint roughout, possibly for a hand axe? It has 40% coretex (on one surface only) - the remaining 10% has been worked away. The patination here is light but 100%, the flint a dark grey. On the other face the flint has heavier 100% patination and an area of crystalisation running across the centre suggests why this roughout may have been discarded. It measures 92.4x74.7x34mm and weighs 221.48g. | 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: | -2500
