Description: | Dark grey flint with cortex lithic implement. Small irregular flake with cortex crudely trimmed from its dorsal side and with a prominent bulb on the ventral. Vert short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows a hollow curving edge. Very short abrupt retouch executed from the ventral aspect also follows the longest straight edge and may represent a cutting edge, if this is not merely adventitious damage. The lack of patina may suggest the object was incorporated into a sealed context shortly after its deposition. Suggested date: Bronze Age, 2350-800 BC.Length: 16.5mm, Width: 22.9mm, Thickness: 5.3mm, Weight: 2.04gms.
