Description: | A flint knife which dates from the Neolithic period. The knife is D shaped in plan and has flaking scars on the dorsal surface. There is abrupt short retouch along the left edge and round the distal end. There are long, low-angle removals on the ventral side of the right edge. The knife is 52.5mm long, 28.6mm wide and 6.6mm thick. The flint is dark grey and unpatinated. Similar examples can be seen in Butler (2005) on page 129 which date from the Early Neolithic. | 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: | -3500
