Title
Late Mesolithic Microliths
Description
English: A pair of Mesolithic microliths, both of later tanged forms, formed by removals from below the point. They are both of a broadly triangular shape, and present a separate pointed tang adjacent to the main triangular body. One, in a darker grey brown flint, is more rounded than the other, while both have an abrupt truncation of the angle of the edge of the triangle opposite to the tang. The more angular flint is of a brown yellow colour, and parts of the white cortex remain visible on the point itself.

Angular, yellow-brown microlith: L.: 35.45mm, W.: 27.03mm, Th.: 9.15mm, Wt.: 5.95g

Sub-rounded, grey-brown microlith: L.: 37.73mm, W.: 22.05mm, Th.: 4.97mm, Wt. 4.75g
