Description: | Flint possible dagger. Large tapered flake with covering angled scalar retouch across its dorsal side and with similar trimming of broad flakes from its ventral surface, producing an ovate section. Working from both sides has produced a narrowing towards the butt which approaches the appearance of a short tang. Dense misty white patina has accumulated overall, suggesting the object endured prolonged exposure after its deposition. Suggested date: Early Bronze Age, 2350-1600 BC.Length: 74.4mm, Width: 46.2mm, Thickness: 12.0mm, Weight: 45.57gms.
