Neolithic (Early) to Bronze Age (Later) notch, 4000 BC to 501 BC. Made on a translucent slight grey brown flint that is starting to turn light grey through the process of patination. Extensively worked flake that displays evidence of further striking on both faces. The left lateral edge has been notched on the ventral face and the right lateral edge possesses a step fracture on the dorsal face presumably to provide support for the thumb during tool usage. The distal end is pointed and the right lateral edge leading to this point is slightly serrated. 49mm long, 37mm wide, 10mm thic…
