Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: CORNWALL
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A short, thick flake of dark grey flint with opaque brown inclusions. It has been truncated straight to leave the proximal end. The break facet has been abruptly retouched or blunted with steep shallow removals. The dorsal surface has a small patch of nodular cortex remaining. The semi-circular distal margin has bold semi-abrupt retouch and some fine finishing to smooth the edge. Mercer(1981) illustrates a scraper on page 133, fig 58, L124.

County: CORNWALL
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Flint pebble burin, round in plan and plano convex in profile. The dorsal side has had large flakes removed from the proximal end extending round the right margin to left of the distal end. The edges are abraded from possible scraper use. There are areas of gloss on the ventral side. The flint has pale grey, cream, pink and beige tones with a dark cream pink beige secondary cortex.

A medial section from a thin blade with straight, parallel lateral margins and dorsal ridges. The translucent brown, cream flecked flint segment has a right angled proximal snap and oblique distal snap as judged by the ventral ripples. The left lateral margin has some semi-abrupt retouch but that on the right is more abrupt. The piece may have been an element in a hafted tool.
