Object type: BLADE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete Mesolithic to Neolithic flint blade. It is long and narrow with three longitudinal flaking scars on the dorsal face. All surfaces are fully patinated and this extends across a break at the distal end suggesting that this occurred before deposition. There is a small semi-circular notch to the right side of the distal end, which potentially appears to be deliberate, but has removed patination suggesting that it occurred much later than the original production. There are no other signs of retouch. Length: 72.55mm, width: 22.77mm, thickness: 5.15mm, weight: 10.59g
