Description: | A flint end scraper, probably dating to between the late Neolithic-early Bronze Age periods (2500-1500 BC). The distal end of the dorsal face has abrupt retouch creating its scraper edge. The ventral face is very crudely knapped with many removals and there seems to be some damage to the proximal end of the dorsal face as well. A small portion of the proximal end contains cortex, near to where the platform is positioned; the removals on the ventral face obscure much of the bulb of percussion and ripples. The scraper measures 48.07 mm long, 32.34 mm wide, 13.85 mm thick and weighs 22.55 grams. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
