Record ID: SUSS-A74EBB
Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An assemblage of thirty pieces of Mesolithic flint debitage, dating from c.8000-4001 BC and including one possible microlith. The assemblage consists largely of struck blades and some bladelets, presumably for the construction of microliths. There are a couple of debitage flakes, probably from core renewal or production of other tools. The single potential microlith is triangular in both plan and cross section and has scaled intrusive retouch along one face. The flint is milky white in colour. L.19.21mm, W. 6.99mm, T.5.21mm Wg.0.45g.

Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of flint bladelet, possibly a piece of debitage or an unfinished microlith blank, Mesolithic, 8000-4500BC. The tertiary flake has been truncated at the proximal end, removing the bulb of percussion though, the rippling remains visible on the ventral side. The dorsal side is marked by a longitudinal ridge created by previous flake removals to either side. There is no retouch present on the object, though there is some damage to the edges of the flake.
