DEBITAGE

Unique ID: NARC-E7B781

Object type certainty: Certain
Workflow status: Awaiting validation

A complete flint piece of Debitage of Neolithic to Bronze Age date (3450-800 BC). The object is sub-rectangular in plan and plano-convex in section. The dorsal surface has one predominant negative scar and short scaled flaking along the distal end. The proximal end has been abruptly blunted. All other edges have semi-abrupt retouch. The ventral surface is predominantly flat with two negative scars along the proximal and right hand edges. The lithic retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake.

The flint is light cream in colour with grey and orange inclusions throughout.

Length: 31.11mm, Width: 39.12mm, Thickness: 9.15mm, Weight: 15.2g.
