Description: | Flint blade, possibly late Mesolithic (6500-3500 BC). The blade is rectangular in shape with a double dorsal ridge. On the dorsal (upper) face, about half the blade has the flint cortex intact. The left dorsal edge displays some fine edge damage indicating that it has been used; there is a small notch where a spawl has been removed, probably unintentionally during use. The blade weighs 4.8g and measures 40.4mm in length, 18.5mm in width and 4.4mm in thickness. | 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
