Record ID: SOM-B154E5
Object type: BORER
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Flint awl and/or scraper, probably of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. Secondary flake, with cortex remaining along the left edge of the dorsal face. The object tapers to a point at the distal end, but the very tip is now missing. Both sides taper inwards very slightly at the proximal end. There are several long, thin removals on the dorsal face. There is very fine low-angle, short, parallel retouch along the left edge of the dorsal face. The flint is mid to light grey in colour with a speckled, milky, matt patina. It has a very small butt and prominent bulb and ripple lines on the …

Object type: BORER

County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Flint borer, probably of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. Secondary flake. There are a few large removals on the dorsal face. Long, stepped, semi-abrupt to abrupt retouch along the left edge of the dorsal face has caused this edge to curve inwards. Further stepped, abrupt retouch towards the distal end, also curving inwards, has created a protruding borer between these two sections. There is further very fine, short, low angle, parallel retouch along the right edge of the doral face, becoming much longer and more uneven towards the proximal end. The butt is wide and there is no visi…

Flint borer, probably of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. Secondary flake. The object is sub-triangular in shape, tapering to a rounded point at the distal end. Most edges of the object show scaled, abrupt to semi-abrupt, short retouch and the bulb has been completely removed. The left edge, when viewed from the ventral face has larger removals, with a single removal at the distal end creating a sharp edge to the pointed section. The flint is light grey in colour with lighter patches in places and a matt patina. Length: 43.09mm, Width: 21.16mm, Thickness: 3.96mm, Weight: 3.2g

Object type: KNIFE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Flint implement on a secondary flake, which appears to have had several uses, possibly at different periods. To the right side of the ventral face is a notch, where a portion has been snapped away, possibly during microlith production. Above this, at the distal end, a small amount of retouch has created a slight spur, which may have been used as a borer. A small amount of further short, low-angle retouch can be seen in various places along the right edge of the dorsal face, creating a slightly uneven, serrated edge, perhaps indicating use as a knife or scraper. In the centre of this i…

Object type: SIDE SCRAPER
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A flint side scraper, notched flake and possible burin. Probably of Mesolithic to Neolithic date. To the left side of the dorsal face is a notch that is possibly the result of microlith production. Along the left side of the ventral face fine, short, low angle, parallel retouch can be seen, with two, small, apparently deliberate notches in the centre. The butt is wide and the bulb virtually non-existant. The flint is mid grey-brown in colour, with lighter milky patches in places. Length: 40.47mm, Width: 25.11mm, Thickness: 5.19mm, Weight: 6.7g

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Flint fabricator or scraper. Secondary flake. Probably of Mesolithic to Neolithic date. The object is long, thin and sub-triangular in cross-section, with a central ridge on the doral face, flattening out at both ends.

There is further long, scaled, abrupt retouch at the distal end of the dorsal face. The butt is small and the bulb fairly prominent. The flint is mottled light-grey in colour, with a milky patina and small amounts of cort…

Object type: END SCRAPER
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Flint end scraper. Tertiary flake. The dorsal face is convex, with parallel, thin flaking scars suggesting that it has been removed from a blade core. The butt is quite small, with a fairly prominent bulb on the ventral face. To the distal end of the dorsal face short, abrupt, very irregular retouch can be seen. The object is very heavily patinated. However, a few of these removals have exposed the brown-grey flint below. These are unfortunately too limited to suggest whether this is evidence of reuse or simply later damage during deposition. The object is likely to date to the Neolith…

Flint scraper, probably of Neolithic date. Tertiary flake. The object is trapezoidal in shape and fairly angular. There is one large flaking scar in the centre of the dorsal face, with a few smaller stepped removals to the proximal end. Along the left side of the dorsal face is very regular, short, semi-abrupt to abrupt, parallel retouch.

Flint scraper, probably of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. Tertiary flake. The object is sub-oval in shape. Both the proximal and distal ends are long and curve out slightly, joining together to form a slight, rounded point in the centre of each side. At the proximal end of the dorsal face are several small, stepped removals, becoming larger towards the centre and largely removing the butt. There are a few long, abrupt, parallel removals to the right of the proximal end. Along the left edge of the distal end is short, scaled, semi-abrupt retouch. There is a hinged fracture line on …

Object type: HANDAXE
Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Published Find published
Lithic implement described as 'a small, incomplete Acheulean handaxe dating to the Lower Paleolithic. Bifacially worked on a tertiary flake. The axe appears to have been roughly heart-shaped originally, with a rounded butt, curving inwards slightly, and a slightly pointed tip at the opposite end. A curved section is missing from one side of the tip. This appears to have occured following deposition as the edges of the break are still sharp. Both faces are largely covered with flaking scars. There is further finer, but irregular, retouch to some of the edges. Both faces have become smo…

Flint scraper, probably of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. Tertiary flake. The object is sub-circular in shape. There are a few parallel flaking scars on the dorsal face. On the left side of the dorsal face part of a very small clear quartz crystal geode can be seen embedded into the flint. This has been split open during the knapping process leaving only a small portion of the complete geode in place. Within this several tiny crystals can be seen. A degree on wear around this, particularly on the ventral face, suggests that this may have been deliberately used as a further feature…
