Two flint cores of possible Mesolithic origin. These flints have been heavily re-corticated following their original production suggesting a long period in the ground post production. Both cores have flake removal scars at a variety of angles indicating multiple striking platforms. Core 1: Weight: 11.6g, Length 33.18mm, Width 19.89mm, Thickness 16.82mm. Core 2: Weight: 7.9g, Length 32.75mm, Width 23.39mm, Thickness 13.52mm.
