Mesolithic flint blade core
Mesolithic flint single platform blade core. The core is made on a poor quality flint pebble and has a platform at the top. Some of the removals have proved ineffective due to internal fractures within the nodule, other flake scars show hinge fracturing of the resulting blades. The flint is pale grey in colour and is unpatinated.
