Record ID: ESS-56098E
Object type: RETOUCHED FLAKE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Essex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete Mesolithic to Neolithic retouched flake, dating 10,000-2,350 BC. The flake is triangular in shape with evidence of retouch on both sides. Faint traces of a bulb of percussion are visible on one side, though few other indicators of knapping are present. One tip of the object also appears to have broken away, probably during knapping. Due to the incompleteness of this object it is difficult to further specify a period of production. Dimensions: length: 35.28 mm; width: 44.46 mm; thickness: 10.74 mm; weight: 20.12g.
