Record ID: HAMP-D08C40
Object type: SCABBARD
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A slightly bent, but complete copper-alloy medieval scabbard chape of 12th-century date. The artefact is of sheet construction, formed of a triangle with protrusions at each end of its long edge, folded over on itself to give a U-shaped profile. The triangular element thus formed is 22.75mm by 17.2mm; the third, longest side is slightly curved. The protrusions (L.: 24.4mm), rectangular in plan, terminate in a lozenge with small collar below. The terminals are perforated centrally and attached to each other by an extant rivet. On the curved edge of the triangular element the sheets …

Record ID: HAMP-D090F5
Object type: CORE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A multiplatform mesolithic flint core of dark flint with very little iron staining. The cortex remains visible on the distal end and along the ventral side. Relatively little has been removed from the core, and the negative flake scars remain very visible, and Classical Alternate Flaking is suggested as having occurred.

Record ID: HAMP-CFCF74
Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A small leaf-shaped flint arrowhead, with small amounts of iron stain forming on the dorsal side. There is some patina on the right side of the dorsal side. On the ventral side there is a completely flat face; there are three clear faces on the dorsal. The point is broken off and there is a small chip in the left cutting edge, when looking at the dorsal face. The very deliberate leaf shape leads to the conclusion that this is an arrowhead rather than a microlith, and the date of Later Neolithic is suggested by a similar example, albeit more damaged, in Bond (2004, 142; ref. F140).

Record ID: HAMP-CF2F28
Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A barbed and tanged flint arrowhead, probably Late Neolithic in date (based on the most similar examples in Bond (2004, 147; ref. 180). One barb is broken with the point missing. The tang is relatively thick (6.9mm) and appears off centre due to a small chip. The point of the head is also snapped off.

Record ID: HAMP-CD8F02
Object type: TILE
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A large piece of Roman box flue tile, with the side face scored for practical purpose with a mixture of horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines. The large inclusion of a pebble indicates the nature of the coarseware used. Smoothed on visible side, with raised edge at bottom end. There is rounding of the edges caused by wear while buried, as box tiles were designed to have clean edges to fit together better. Other damage includes severe scratches.

Record ID: HAMP-CCD177
Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A hand made coarseware fragment from the rim of a late Saxon/early-medieval jar type open vessel (c. 950 - c. 1050 AD). The sherd has a dark coloration due to non-oxidisation during firing. Some sooting indicates use as a cooking vessel with inclusions of a flint temper (some of which has been burnt). The sherd has suffered a small chip in the rim surface. On the complete vessel the rim would have been approximately 140mm in diameter.
