Description: | Dark grey flint with cortex and light misty patina on most but not all struck faces, core. Elongated pyramidal core with long narrow and parallel flakes removed by unidirectional working. That surface which may have formed the original striking platform has seen further angled scalar retouch which has removed patina. The Later Mesolithic period could embrace both episodes. Suggested date: Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC.Length: 44.0mm, Width: 18.4mm, Thickness: 18mm, Weight: 16.03gms.
