Title |
Lithic : Palaeolithic |
||
Description |
English: A complete flint/chert pointed Acheulian handaxe/biface of lower to middle Palaeolithic date (500,000-40,000 BC). The lithic is sub-triangular in profile. The upper surface is slightly convex and has covering flaking, most likely due to the size of the negative scars created by direct hard percussive method. All edges contain irregular crossed abrupt retouch. The lower surface is convex and has covering flaking and a minor amount retained cortex situated along the proximal left hand edge.
The flint/chert is a light brown with dark brown curvilinear inclusions and cream inclusions throughout. The cortex is a dark cream in colour. This lithic was recovered from a gravel pit from which several other chert implements including a large Levallois flake. The deposit from which the object was recovered is situated on a terrace of the Axe Valley gravels. |
