The striking platform and bulb of percussion are present on the ventral face. The long edges have not been reworked although movement in the plough surface suggests abrupt retouch is present. The flint is relatively coarse and a mid grey colour with small areas of translucent milky grey white coloured patina.The blade measures 22.4mm in length, 15.9mm width, is 3.2mm thick and weighs 1.05 grams. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
