Description

Summary: 1 blue flint, leaf-shaped with cutting edge on one side and a notch worked in opposite edge; appears to have had a point at one end which has the tip broken off, possibly a multi-purpose tool ideal for carrying around as it is produced on a fairly light-weight flake, from the Neolithic period, found at Sutton Mandeville, Wiltshire in 1921.
