Flint flake of probable Mesolithic-Neolithic date (8300BC-2100BC). In plan the flake is sub-rectangular. The top of the flake is fairly flat and is sub-triangular in cross-section. This is the thickest part of the flake and is known as the striking platform. It is also the point where the blade was struck from a larger piece of flint (or core). The area directly below the striking platform is quite thick and pointed. This area is called the bulb of percussion (positive) and is caused by the impact that was used to produce the flake. The dorsal (upper face) has three arrises (ridges) wi…
