Description: | Grey flint knife. A thick flake with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and a bulbar ventral surface. Long angled scalar retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows one long edge. The other side of the same edge is trimmed by short scalar retouch executed from the ventral aspect, with similar working along part of the opposite edge. The lack of patina may suggest the object was incorporated into a sealed context shortly after its deposition. Suggested date: Early Bronze Age, 2350-1600 BC.Length: 24.9mm, Width: 23.4mm, Thickness: 13.1mm, Weight: 8.89gms
