| Title |
Early Bronze Age Polished Knife |
|||
| Description |
English: An Early Bronze Age (2150 BC - 1500 BC) polished knife, measuring 98.53mm in length and weighing 35.07g. It is 34.45mm in maximum width at the centre, narrowing at either end to a rounded point at the distal (3.44mm thick) and 15.57mm wide blunt at the proximal.
The left dorsal edge has polishing at the mesial point, c.12.5mm in length. Above and below the edge has been pressure-flaked with large-ish flakes. The dorsal distal end has smaller, steeper pressure-flaking, continuing onto the top right dorsal edge. Below is another area of polished edge, 26mm long. This is interrupted at the other end by a notch (possibly with some working on the ventral side) but probably accidental. Below, to the right dorsal edge is some large-flaked pressure-flaking. The proximal end is squared and quite chunky at 8.75mm thick (max.thickness). The flint is dark grey in colour and translucent. |
