Title
Late Palaeolithic to early Mesolithic flint blade
Description
English: A broad flint blade of probable late Palaeolithic to early Mesolithic date. The implement is sub-rectangular, with rounded corners. It is trapezoidal in section and has two angled vertical faces either side of a flat central vertical face. There are several chips along the edges, which are probably consistent with heavy useage. On the reverse there is a bulb of percussion. The rippling is difficult to see due to the heavy greyish-white patination. The tool measures 74.5mm long by 27.6mm wide and 7.7mm thick. It weighs 19.93g.
