Description: | Grey semi-translucent flint with patch of relict cortex. Debitage. Flake with two possible flake removal or trimming scars from hard hammer working at a shallow angle on the dorsal aspect, heavily patinated after working. A small striking platform and a marked bulb of percussion on the ventral aspect suggest further hard hammer working, though the patchier patination here suggests this was after the elapse of a significant period of time. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC.Length: 26.33mm, Width: 23.6mm, Thickness: 6mm, Weight: 3.70gms.
