Flint bifacial tool of composite type and probably of Neolithic date The tool is incomplete, missing the proximal end (with a surviving length of 62.0mm, a maximum width of 35.5mm, a maximum thickness of 13.4mm and a weight of 31.1g). Although no obvious grinding striations are evident on the surface, two facets on the dorsal surface appear to have been polished, suggesting that the tool has been made from a broken Neolithic flint axe. It is also possible to suggest that the steep facet on the distal end is the blade edge or approaching the edge. There is steep retouch on the sid…

Although the knife appears to have broken across its width (where it has a width of 15.5mm), there appears to be retouch over the break, perhaps suggesting the tip was deliberately backed and implying a possibly secondary use as an awl. Both sides are retouched along their entire surviving lengths, as they converge to the tip. The retouch is confined to the dorsal surface, although …
