Title
Mesolithic microburin
Description
English: Proximal end of a snapped blade with retouch along the distal end, Mesolithic in date. The bulb of percussion and a bulb scar remains at the proximal end of the ventral face. Small area of short semi-abrupt retouch at the proximal of the right edge on the dorsal face. The distal end has been snapped with a notch from the left edge taking up about a third of the width. The remainder of the snap has been retouched with short, semi-abrupt retouch, creating a straight edge ending in a point at the distal right corner (seen form the dorsal face) . The flint is translucent mid-grey. It measures 15.9mm long, 12.3mm wide by 2.8mm thick and weighs 0.52g.
