Description

Several dozen chipped stone pieces are laid out in rows on a dark background, including long narrow blades, flakes and irregular fragments. A white numeral label is written or painted beside each piece. The longest blades stand upright in the centre, while the smaller pieces at the sides are shorter and more irregular, with chipped edges.
