Mesolithic to Iron Age dark grey flint tertiary debitage. No retouch, heat effected post working. The thermal shattering may be the result of the more complete piece of stone being used as a 'pot boiler'. These were stones heated on the fire then dropped into liquid to it. The cold fluid often caused the stone to shatter and break. Dates from c10,000 to c400 BC. The length is 20mm, width 16mm, thickness 5mm, and the weight is 1.57g.
