Remarks

EB flint sickle blade. This is an end piece to the sickle assembly, tapering at the end to a narrow point. Ventral edge is serrated, although serrations do not extend all the way to the distal end. Dorsal edge is sharp but not serrated. Proximal end is squared off. Midline is symmetric and sides well-shaped. Most remarkable about this blade is the presence of bitumen on both sides of the blade that would have been used for hafting.
