Description: | Grey flint borer. Sub-triangular flake with long and broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a concave ventral surface. Invasive angled scalar retouch executed from the dorsal aspect has trimmed or smoothed the larger part of the surface. Very short abrupt retouch also executed from the dorsal aspect runs up one, or possibly both, sides of a point. Dense misty patina suggests the object has endured prolonged exposure to a calcareous environment after its deposition. Suggested date: Late Neolithic, 2700-2350 BC.Length: 53.8mm, Width: 45.6mm, Thickness: 6.9mm, Weight: 14.26gms
