Description: | A small flint knife of Neolithic date, about 4000 BC - 2200 BC. It is formed on a tertiary flake of semi-translucent tan coloured flint and is not patinated except for a small area on the right side of the dorsal face, perhaps suggesting that the tool was formed on a previously struck flake. The flake is sub-rectangular with a rounded distal end. It is D shaped in section. There is invasive, scalar, semi-abrupt retouch from the dorsal face on the left side and left distal end. It is 37mm long, 16.4mm wide and 8.3mm thick. 5.75g.
