Description
English: A Neolithic blade in dark blue-grey flint with areas of mid grey. Three faces on the dorsal surface, with a retouched edge on the bottom right side, which is 30mm long and tapers towards the end. Cortex still remains on the left side and in the middle on the bottom half. The bottom tip has been removed by a single flake. Two faces on the ventral surface; one is a large flake on the top left side that has removed most of the evidence for the bulb of percussion. Retouch on the top left side. Pressure flaked. The blade is 45mm in length and is wider in the middle (27mm) and narrow at the top (17mm) and bottom (10mm).
