Neolithic flint discoidal knife
The knife is made on a flake. The knife retains part of the cortex at the thick end of the flake. Both surfaces irregularly flaked all over except for a small area on the ventral surface near the proximal end which seems to preserve part of the bulb of percussion. A narrow polished edge has been applied on both sides after flaking around the distal end of the flake and most of the way down one side. The knife does not show any traces of 'corn gloss'.
