Mesolithic to Neolithic (c. 7000 to 2350 BC) debitage: Two flakes knapped from flint. 1.The flake is knapped from a white/grey coloured flint which has a waxy texture. There is a small patch of white patina suggesting the flake has been knapped from a larger, older flake. It is trapezoidal with two vertical scars on the dorsal surface, and at least five scars on the ventral surface which are perpendicular to those on the dorsal surface. There is a small striking platform. It measures 22.45mm long, 15.58mm wide, 6.88mm thick and weighing 2.18g. 2.The flake is a sedonday flake wi…

County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Early Mesolithic to early Neolithic (8000 to 3500 BC) flint flake, which is an elongated triangle in plan and in section. The ventral surface has a small bulb of percussion, bulbar scar and conchoidal ripples. The dorsal surface has two vertical scars three other smaller scars. The laterial edges feel as if there are serrated, but this is probably due to damage rather than intention. The flint has a mottled dark to light grey colour. The flake measures 17.63mm in length, 11.26mm width, is 3.75mm thick and weighs 0.49g.

Mesolithic to early Neolithic (-8300 to -2900) probable knife or blade: The implement has been knapped from the flint core. The dorsal surface has a central vertical scar and then the lateral edges have a vertical scar also. The distal end is rounded due to retouch on both faces. At this end, on the dorsal surface there is a patch of cortex. The ventral surface has a bulb of percussion, conchoidal ripples and striking platform. At the proximal end, next to the bulb of percussion there is possibly a notch which has been knapped, or it is recent damage, it is uncertain which. One latera…

Object type: PERFORATED OBJECT
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Published
Mesolithic to Neolithic (8,300 to 4,500 BC) perforated object: stone pebble hammer or mace head. The pebble hammer is incomplete, approximately half remains, and this half is semi-cylindrical in plan, with an incomplete perforation along the straight broken edge. The perforation has an hour-glass profile and measures: 25mm diameter at its narrowest and 32mm deep. The stone is possibly hard sandstone. Due to the 'hardness' it resembles a 'Bunter quartzite' pebble. These are river worn pebbles of hard sandstone that are widely distributed throughout the Midlands. The pebble is a mottled…

A knapped flint core. In plan the core is oval and in section it is sub pointed-oval. The dorsal surface has multiple vertical slender negative scars whaereas the ventrical surface has a single convex scare and a smaller concave one. Along one edge there is a slender patch of cortex. The flint is an opaque light brown colour which has a waxy texture. The core weighs 6.1g and measures 23.58mm long and 22.3mm wide.

Object type: TRANCHET AXEHEAD
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Published
An unfinished flint or chert tranchet axe of Mesolithic date. The axe is knapped from a heavily patinated flint or chert whose surface is mainly a mottled brown/yellow colour. Where there is recent damage the colour is a mottled light grey. In plan the axe is a sub-oval and is a sub-oval in section. The dorsal and ventral faces are covered with negative flake scars, but there is not a bifacial flake at the blade end, therefore it is considered to be an unfinished axe (Phil Watson pers comm). It measures 101.11mm length, 43.21mm width, and is 23.74mm thick. The fragment weighs 128g. Th…

Mesolithic to Neolithic stone pebble hammer or mace head. The pebble hammer is sub-triangular in both plan and an elongated pointed oval in profile. The pebble, identified by Dr. Jon Radley (Warwickshire Museum) is a hard sandstone, probably quartz-cemented. Due to the 'hardness' it resembles a 'Bunter quartzite' pebble. These are river worn pebbles of hard sandstone that are widely distributed throughout the Midlands. The pebble is a mottled yellow/brown colour and is smooth. It is probable that the shape of the pebble has been augmented by polishing. The central shaft hole is a wide…
