LITHIC IMPLEMENT

Unique ID: SF-4791B8

Object type certainty: Certain
Workflow status: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation

1: A thick irregular and crudely smashed and retouched worked flint, Neolithic in date.
2: An incomplete biface with all-over working. Curving body (like a sickle) with relatively crude edges and finish. Flake scars partly abraded but not stained or patinated. Flint colour of mixed greys. It is unclear if this implement is the handle part of a large crude Neolithic sickle or possibly an earlier irregular biface implement.
