Description: | Blade in high quality black flint. Triangular in section at one end and trapizoid at the other. It has probable cortext covering c.30% of the dorsal face including a patch at the proximal end. It has a snap at the distal end. Bulb scars have removed the bulb of percussion but there are clear percussion waves on the ventral face. About a third of the right edge on the dorsal face, near the proximal end, has short abrupt scaler retouch and the rest of this edge is chipped, probably from use. Probably Neolithic in date. It is 49.5mm by 21.9mm by 9.7mm and weighs 10.90 grams.
