Title
1D2861. Late Neolithic to Early Bronze age: Flint waste flakes.
Description
English: 2 secondary waste flakes. Irregular flakes, both of banded light grey-brown and dark grey flint with a low gloss patina on the light grey brown areas and a milky-white patina on the dark grey. Both have areas of yellowed nodule cortex. Both flakes have some recent edge damage.

The first flake has a small striking platform and a bulb of percussion with a bulbar scar. The distal end has been snapped off. There are two flaking scars on the dorsal surface flanking a large area of cortex. The second flake is a fragment from the distal end of a larger piece. Again the rest has been snapped off. It has several flaking scars on the dorsal face and a band of cortex at the edge of the distal end. This flake has a few retouch flaking scars at one side, but not enought to make it a definite tool type.
