Description: | Incomplete Mesolithic blade knapped from light brown flint. The blade has been snapped, removing the distal end. The proximal end has some evidence of platform preporation, and there are some bulbar scars. There is no bulb of percussion. Impact ripples run along the length of the blade. The dorsal surface has two parallel ridges along its length. There is a scar towards the proximal end where a previous flake was not completely removed from the surface. The edges have been semi-retouched with abrupt removals. The surviving section of blade is 40.7mm long, 39.99mm wide and 4.84mm thick. | 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: | -8300
