Description: | A flint blade fragment of probable Neolithic date. The blade is a broken tertiary flake. On the ventral surface at the proximal end are the striking platform, the bulb of percussion, from which ripples radiate, and a bulbar scar. On the dorsal side there are three main flaking scars. There is some edge damage which has removed the milky white patina to reveal the light brown flint beneath. The blade has snapped at a length of 19.88mm.
Dimensions: 19.88mm by 18.46mm by 5.76mm
