Full Description
Flint flake from sieving of Pleistocene terrace deposits at Horns Cross, Stone, Dartford. Under the coordination of a Paleolithic expert the natural Pleistocene gravels and sands were machine excavated in spits of up to 250mm and 100 litre samples taken at selected depths. The samples were sieved on site for the recovery of archaeological remains. One flint flake was recovered, from a context interpreted as a reworked Pleistocene terrace deposit (1).
