Dear Everyone,
I know some of us have been hounding JV Beckum for the Witthoft paper from
PA Archaeologist, In the meanwhile - see the below citation -  i think
anyone interested in flint knapping and gunflints will find exceptional,
and since it is critical may be worth reading by anyone considering reading
the Witthoft paper, with all respects to Witthoft, whose individual
contributions to archaeology are many. - Like Mead when she had that
walking stick you could kill a horse with, we should be respectful of early
research - 50 years of hindsight is an exponential differential.  How's
that for a morning rhyme

this should be available through on-line library database search - i
sourced through academia.com

Post-Medieval Archaeology 46/1 2012 - 116-142 - 'State of the Art' of
British Gunflint Research with special focus on the early gunflint workshop
at Dun Eistean, Lewis
Sincerely,
kev
