Title
Bronze Age scraper
Description
English: Large piriform (teardrop shaped) in outline scraper with a heavily domed dorsal face with a very hackled and damaged surface where it is not retouched. Made from a large piece struck off the cortex with a patch of cortex covering the proximal end and a large, defuse bulb of percussion on the ventral face. Large, invasive, abrupt, parallel retouch or removals down the right edge of the dorsal face , becoming narrower, finer retouch towards the distal end. The distal end it self appears damaged with the edge hackled and broken away but with the remains of large, invasive, abrupt, parallel retouch above. Down the left edge is long (less invasive), semi-parallel, semi-abrupt retouch. It is 46.8mm long, 35.8mm wide, 19.8mm thick and weighs 34.9 grams. The form suggests a Bronze Age date.
