Title: Re: cracking bit of burnt flint Post by: waltonbasinman on June 24, 2009, 08:23:09 PM Nice find Radnor Bandit. It is called a blade, to big to be a Microlith and you would be spot on with the Mesolithic / Neolithic crossover. About 4500 to 3500 BC, so just about 5500 years old at least. A bleeding cracking find.
