Lithic implement | BH-42C224 |
Neolithic | Bedfordshire |
xml | csv json |
| A retouched flint flake tool of probable Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date. The tool is sub-rectangular in plan. An area of core platform at the top suggest that the flake was struck from a well prepared core, while the slope of this platform suggests an oblique striking angle. The ventral surfa... | |||||
