Context (Amendments / updates)
This idno was examined by Olivier Touzé, PhD candidate at Université de Liège, on 14 June 2017. Touzé does not believe that these are the tangs of large Font-Robert points, but are instead a pointed blade, a shouldered blade and a blank with abrupt retouch. The Description has therefore been updated accordingly.
