Record ID: LANCUM-2C9631
Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Cumbria
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Mesolithic to early Neolithic tertiary flake of off white translucent quartz. Probably debitage but possibly a poorly made bladelet or microlith as there is retouch (short, sub-parallel, abrupt) along one mesal. It has been snapped off at the proximal end and the distal terminates in flawed stone. Dates to between c8000 and c3500 BC. The length is 10mm, width 5mm, and the weight is 0.11g.
