Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: IRON AGE
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Published
A cast copper alloy highly decorative object, probably a handle from a bronze/ copper alloy vessel. The object was taken to the British Museum where Jody Joy (Iron Age curator) and Ralph Jackson (Roman curator) felt that it dated from the very end of the 1st Century BC to the early part of the 1st Century AD. It is therefore very late Iron Age to very early Roman in date. They noticed that the style is Roman (especially the creature's eye) but the metal working style looks Iron Age. Some similar vessel handle and fitting were found in a German publication, but the best parallel can be…

A small flint end scraper, almost square in shape at the distal end, before widening into a semi-circular proximal scraping and cutting surface. On the dorsal face this effect is somewhat marred by the presence of a relatively large amount of the cortex remaining at the proximal end. The flint is an irregular biface, with the ventral face very flat and smooth, despite a curve in the flint which is not really visible but may be felt. The flint itself is a grey colour, with areas of both lighter and darker grey shades, while the cortex is brown with an almost white surface showing throug…
