Description: | A flint blade of probable Neolithic date. The blade is a broken tertiary flake. On the ventral surface at the proximal end is part of the bulb of percussion, from which ripples radiate. On the dorsal surface there are a number of flaking scars. The bluish white flint has a mid-gloss patina, although the blade is broken at both ends, revealing light brown flint underneath.
