Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Three waste knapped flint flakes or debitage. The three flakes have been knapped from an opaque red/brown coloured flint. One flake has a patch of cortex remaining, with multiple scars on the dorsal surface. One flake also has multiple scars on the dorsal surface, whereas the third is probably a fragment of a flake. Together the pieces weigh 5.1g. The debitage probably dates to the Mesolithic to early Bronze Age, -8300 to –1500.

Object type: PERFORATED OBJECT
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
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…

Two knapped flint flakes. The flakes are knapped from an opaque mid brown coloured flint. Each has patches of cortex remaining. One flake has small vertical scars on the dorsal surface and the ventral surface has a small bulb of percussion and concentric rings. The other flake has two vertical scars on the dorsal surface and a small bulb of percussion and concentric rings on the ventral surface. The flakes weigh 4.4g. The flake is prehistoric, probably dating to the Mesolithic or Neolithic periods (-8300 to -2100) when considering the size of the scars on the dorsal surface.

County: County of Herefordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A knapped Mesolithic or early Neolithic flint blade or bladelet which is probably a microdenticulate. The blade is complete, with the proximal end having a feint bulb of percussion on the ventral face. The dorsal surface has three vertical negative linear scars and one lateral edge has a very fine retouch. This retouch is not particularly visible, but can be felt. It is trapezoidal in section.The flint is a pale mottled grey to white in colour. The bladelet measures 21.05mm in length, 6.02mm wide, 2.62mm thick and weighs 0.4 grams.

Object type: MICROBURIN
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: County of Herefordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Mesolithic flint microlith which has been further knapped to form a microburin. The artefact is sub-rectangular in plan, which tapers slightly. The terminals are broken edges, therefore the proxmal and distal ends are missing. Along one lateral edge retouch has occurred from the dorsal surface forming a small indentation along the edge. The microlith is sub-trapezoidal in section with the scars occuring on the dorsal surface. The flint has developed a mottled cream patina. The tool measures 23.83mm long, 7.64mm wide, 2.35mm thick and weighs 0.4grams. The microburin dates to the …
