Description: | A lithic blade of Mesolithic to Neolithic date, snapped at one terminal. The length of this artefact is more than twice the width and with the sides more or less parallel. The section is roughly D-shaped with shallow sides on the dorsal surface. The bulb of percussion and striking platform have both been removed (due to the break), along with ripples of percussion, and there is some evidence of retouch along the length of the blade. The flint is a light yellowish-brown colour with some lighter flaws.
