Description: | An incomplete flint lithic implemet, probably a piercer, dating to Late Bronze Age (c. 1150-800). The piercer is old broken on one side and retains no traces of the original cortex (tertiary flake). The dorsal surface shows three different, negative flake scars and a series of scaled smaller scars, possibly due to modern field working. There are no visible striking platform or bulb of percussion. There is a short, scaled and semi-abrupt retouch. The flint is a semi-translucent grey with lighter colour inclusions. The flint is 56.31mm in length, 36.44mm in width, 7.52mm in thick and weights 12.46g.
