Title
Serrated implement
Description
English: Flint serrated blade of probable Early Mesolithic date (9000 - 6500 BC). The flint is tan brown in colour with some white inclusions. It is opaque, and is a tertiary flake. It is sub-rectangular in plan and sub-trapezoid in section. There is short, parallel, semi-abrupt, soft hammer retouch to the right hand side, carried out from the dorsal face, which has created a finely serrated saw edge with approx. 10 teeth per centimetre. There is also a curved notch at the right hand side at the proximal end created by abrupt, short, sub-parallel retouch carried out from the dorsal face. The tool is 53.1mm long x 20mm wide x 6.9mm thick and weighs 6.7g.
