Description

No Original Card

Revised: Flint flake - Triangular point. Bulb at corner. Yellow-green shiny patination, which grades into light blue and orange towards cortex. Portions of cortex remaining on sides of upper face. Edges show utilization. Small striking platform and accidented bulb. Original locality given as "North France" but very probably from Abbeville because of identical patination. See note on 1807a card. North France (?Abbeville, 40 metre terrace, Carriere Carpentier). Clactonian II?
