One end of a whetstone made of well cemented and sorted fine grain sandstone. The whetstone is sub-square in section with rounded corners and an bar shape with one angled end and irregular broken end. Three sides seem smoother from use. It is 88.4mm long, and a maximum of 30.2mm by 25.5mm; it weighs 121 grams.<\/p>
It is not a local rock but maybe Devonian (D. Parsons pers comm) and traded fairly locally. Whetstones are known to have been used from the Bronze Age onwards and continued to be used for scythes and other tools into the 20th century. A Roman, Medieval or Post Medieval date would be in keeping with surrounded material.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>", "notes":null, "reuse":null, "reusePeriodID":null, "created":"2017-04-03 11:58:00", "updated":"2017-04-10 12:21:20", "secwfstage":"4", "findofnote":null, "objecttypecert":"1", "datefound1":"2016-07-01", "datefound2":"2016-08-31", "inscription":null, "museumAccession":null, "subsequentAction":"1", "objectCertainty":"Certain", "dateFromCertainty":"1", "dateToCertainty":"1", "dateFoundFromCertainty":null, "dateFoundToCertainty":null, "subPeriodFrom":null, "subPeriodTo":null, "objdate1period":"21", "objdate2period":"36", "secuid":"PAS58E22AB8001822", "material1":"2", "material2":null, "manmethod":"12", "decmethod":null, "decstyle":null, "complete":"2", "surface":null, "manufactureID":"12", "culture":null, "smrRef":null, "hoardcontainer":null, "institution":"SOM", "reason":null, "primaryMaterial":"Stone", "primaryBMmaterial":"11794", "secondaryMaterial":null, "secondaryBMmaterial":null, "decoration":null, "style":null, "manufacture":"Ground\/polished", "surfaceTreatment":null, "completeness":"Incomplete", "preservation":null, "periodFrom":"ROMAN", "seneschalPeriodFrom":"RO", "bmPeriodFrom":"x41218", "periodoPeriodFrom":"p0gjgrs69ws", "periodTo":"POST MEDIEVAL", "seneschalPeriodTo":"PM", "bmPeriodTo":"x41047", "periodoPeriodTo":"p0gjgrs6sgx", "reusePeriod":null, "ascribedCulture":null, "culturePeriodo":null, "cultureBM":null, "discmethod":"Fieldwalking", "fromCirca":"Circa", "toCirca":"Circa", "findSpotID":"840435", "countyID":"10578", "districtID":"10495", "regionID":"41427", "map25k":"ST6928", "map10k":"ST62NE", "knownas":"Near Wincanton", "woeid":null, "gridlen":"6", "geonamesID":null, "accuracy":"100", "what3words":null, "source":"From a paper map", "coinID":null, "obverseDescription":null, "obverseInscription":null, "reverseDescription":null, "reverseInscription":null, "cciNumber":null, "denominationID":null, "degreeOfWear":null, "allenType":null, "vaType":null, "mackType":null, "abcType":null, "bmcType":null, "reeceID":null, "dieAxis":null, "moneyer":null, "revtypeID":null, "categoryID":null, "typeID":null, "tribeID":null, "statusID":null, "rulerQualifier":null, "denominationQualifier":null, "mintQualifier":null, "dieAxisCertainty":null, "initialMark":null, "reverseMintMark":null, "statusQualifier":null, "ruler1":null, "ruler2":null, "mintID":null, "rrcID":null, "ricID":null, "tribe":null, "ironAgeRegion":null, "ironAgeArea":null, "denomination":null, "nomismaDenomination":null, "dbpediaDenomination":null, "bmDenomination":null, "primaryRuler":null, "viaf":null, "rulerDbpedia":null, "nomismaRulerID":null, "secondaryRuler":null, "periodName":null, "dateRange":null, "mintName":null, "nomismaMintID":null, "pleiadesID":null, "mintGeonamesID":null, "mintWoeid":null, "mintOsID":null, "mintGettyID":null, "mintWoeID":null, "mintDbPediaID":null, "mintWhat3Words":null, "mintBritMuseumID":null, "wear":null, "nomismaWear":null, "dieAxisName":null, "category":null, "type":null, "moneyerID":null, "nomismaMoneyer":null, "emperorID":null, "romanMintID":null, "reverseType":null, "status":null, "jettonClass":null, "jettonType":null, "jettonGroup":null, "thumbnail":"https:\/\/finds.org.uk\/images\/thumbnails\/610704.jpg", "filename":"som22ab88.JPG", "filesize":"3102466", "imageLabel":"Unknown whetstone fragment", "imageCopyrightHolder":"Somerset County Council", "imageLicense":"4", "imagedir":"images\/wpartridge\/", "region":"South West", "rallyID":null, "rallyName":null, "rallyDateFrom":null, "rallyDateTo":null, "landuse":null, "landvalue":"Cultivated land", "regionType":"European Region", "countyType":"County", "county":"Somerset", "districtType":"District", "district":"South Somerset", "parishType":"Civil Parish", "centreLat":"51.061", "centreLon":"-2.45937", "subsequentActionTerm":"Returned to finder", "bmThesObject":null, "seneschalObject":"96475", "url":"https:\/\/finds.org.uk\/database\/artefacts\/record\/id\/840556" }, "id":"840556" } ] }
