A Palaeolithic implement
Back to Time PeriodThis implement was found by Tim Taylor and Phil Harding of the television programme 'Time Team' whilst they were walking on the banks of the river Exe; it was embedded in gravel. It has been roughly knapped from a dark brown greensand chert pebble. The edges are lightly rolled, indicating that the artefact has been transported by water from its original deposition site.
