This implement was found close to the Roman town of Vagniacae at Northfleet in Kent. This area borders the famous Palaeolithic site at Swanscombe, which is less than a mile away. The area where this implement come from has been subjected to much ... moredisturbance through road building. Channel Tunnel High Speed Rail Link and other commercial building. It is more than likey that the implement had been disturbed through this construction activity. I was initially looking for Iron Age and Roman pottery sherds. However, it was whilst picking up pottery that I began to notice shaped implements of a mucher greater age and so began collecting those as well. It soon became my main interest and have been field walking ever since. It is a fantastic feeling to find such an implement. Firstly spotting a knapped edge in the soil and then the thrill of being the first to hold it in many thousands of years. It has been a pleasure finding and owning such an implement. However it is now someone elses chance to own it. 281g_gsrx_vers_526(GS 6.6.6(526) RcmdId ViewItemDescV4,RlogId p4%60bo7%60jtb9%3Fuk.rp*a4%601gc%3E-14440bbe95c-0xdc-

Mousterian Notched End and Side Scraper on a Thick Flake m68
Mousterian Notched End and Side Scraper on a Thick Flake m68 Here for offer is a finely worked Mousterian notched scraper. The scraper is in superb condition. It has been retouched along the working edges. L: 8.5 cm x W: 5 cm x 1.5 cm(thickest) weight: 80 grams The Mousterian period in Europe dated to around 200.000- 100,000 years ago, it was not until around 100,000 years ago that it made it's appearance in Britain, this was probably due to the harsh climate at that time. The Mousterian stone tool industry was based on the production of flakes that were used either as sharp points. Side scrapers, notches, denticulated and the thin flat based hand axes. The levallois technique and handaxes continued during the middle Palaeolithic as did the production of various scrapers and bifaces similar to those of the Acheulian tradition. This tools ... moreis part of my own personal collection that I have been fortunate enough to have found over the years.
