This small broad projectile point was made out of a variagated stone related to Brandon Black Flint (one of the finest knapping stone in the world) by John Lord, the ex-curator of Grimes Graves, the sprawling Lower Paleolithic mining site in Norfolk County (near Brandon) in the United Kingdom. John Lord is the author of the excellent small book " The Nature and Subsequent Uses of Flint: The Basics of Lithic Technology ". The tools that he used were exclusively those used in ancient England, viz., hammerstones, antler hammers and antler tines, the last for pressure flaking. |
