Description: | A flint microdenticulate of Mesolithic to early Neolithic date. A sub-triangular tertiary flake. There are several small denticulations running from the proximal end of the dorsal face along the lower half of the right side. Along the left side a long, inwards curving spall has been removed. Together with two uneven, parallel flakes removed from the upper edge of the right side, this creates a point at the distal end. There are a few wide, parallel flaking scars on the dorsal face, creating a smooth surface. The flint is grey in colour with a slight milky patina. The bulb and butt are largely missing so the type of hammer cannot be determined.Length: 34.76mm, Width: 14.92mm, Thickness: 7.51mm, Weight: 2.98g
