Title
Bronze Age : Lithic Implement
Description
English: A knapped lithic implement of early Bronze Age date. The implement is roughly D-shaped in plan with a rectangular protrusion and a plano-convex section. Cortex remains covering roughly 90% of the entire object and is smooth texture and light brownish-white in colour. Evidence of knapping is only present in one area of the implement where a semi-circular notch has been created with steep sides which taper to form a sharp edge. The limited knapping suggests this piece was a naturally occurring flint with the notch removed for a function.
The flint is a dark blackish-grey with numerous lighter inclusions. The implement is 51.1mm long, 45.9mm wide, 12.8mm thick and weighs 34.3g.
