County: Kent
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete segment of a flint blade, dating to the Mesoilthic period (10,000 to 4300 BC). The remaining portion of the blade consists of the platform and bulb of percussion and part of the tapering blade. The tip of the blade is missing. The blade's shape seems to have been formed from three larger strokes for shaping and then further smaller knapping techniques were used to sharpen the edge. It measures 20.83 mm in length; 16.07 mm in width; and 3.33 mm thick. The blade weighs 1.3 g. The colour of the flint implies that it was not exposed to chalk deposits or surface elements, whi…
