Record ID: SUR-AE4E1C
Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A curved flint blade of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date, 63mm in length and struck from a patinated grey-brown flint with small patches of cortex on the distal end and dorsal surface. The distal end has been worked into a point with short abrupt retouch along the concave edge, suggesting possible use as a piercer. There is a second patch of retouch around a small notch near the proximal end, suggesting that the tool may have been multi functional.

A flint tool, taking the form of a serrated blade, probably dating from the Late Mesolithic to the Neolithic period, c. 7000-2351 BC. The blade is made from a tertiary flake of mid grey flint with a band of darker grey cutting diagonally through it. It is an elongated leaf shape in plan, and is slightly concave on one side and convex on the other. The dorsal face has a ridge running lengthwise slightly off centre.
