Record ID: OXON-7D1411
Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A damaged plunging flake of probable Mesolithic date, c. 10,000 - 4,000 BC. The secondary flake has been hard-hammer struck from a mottled orange-brown flint core. There is a seam of quartz visible. Ancient flakes scars are evident on the dorsal surface but there is also modern damage to all surfaces. The flake has a wide central section that tapers towards either end while the dorsal side has a stepped profile.

Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: West Berkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A collection of eight later prehistoric blades and bladelet flakes, probably dating from c. 7000 - 2400 BC (Mesolithic to Neolithic). The blades have all been made on a mottled grey flint; seven are tertiary flakes while on is secondary with a very small area of retouch on the distal tip. None of the blades are retouched. These objects form part of an assemblage of flint artefacts of later prehistoric date.

Record ID: BERK-CEB825
Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: West Berkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A collection of three flint debitage pieces, or flintworking flakes of probable Mesolithic date. The debitage pieces include two unworked bladelets (combined weight of 3.8 grams) and one flake (6.8 grams), which retains its bulb. All three pieces are made on the characteristic mottled blue-grey flint of the area, which has a milky outer coating. Two of the pieces, the larger bladelet and the flake, retain areas of cortex, both being secondary flakes. The smaller bladelet is made on a tertiary flake.
Associated with BERK-CDE464 and BERK-CDE464.

Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Published
A collection of 89 flint debitage pieces of varying size, shape and colour, dating from the Mesolithic to Neolithic period (c. 10,000 - 2350 BC). The collection consists of flakes and blade-like pieces and chunks, mostly undiagnostic but considering the rest of the assemblage probably of Mesolithic or Neolithic date. Most of the pieces are made on a blue-grey flint, some with white or grey patina. Cortex survives on about 10% of the pieces.
These objects are part of a larger collection from what appears to be a multiphase site.

Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Published
A collection of 48 flint debitage pieces (bladelet material) of varying size, shape and colour, dating from the Mesolithic to early Neolithic period (c. 10,000 - 3501 BC). The collection consists of mainly blade or bladelet shaped pieces and flakes with a few broken blades and small chips. Most of the bladelets have a triangular cross section. None are reworked. The flint material is generally a blue-grey with white or grey patina. Cortex survives on about 25% of the pieces.
These objects are part of a larger collection from what appears to be a multiphase site.

Record ID: BERK-35867C
Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Published
A collection debitage consisting of 24 bladelets dating to the Mesolithic period (10,000-4001 BC). They are in varying sizes and varying stages of preperation. They are broadly rectangular in plan with a trapezoidal cross section., although the less-fine examples have a triangular cross section. All of the bladelets are on a mottled blue-grey flint many with a white patina forming. Seceral examples are in the early stage of preperation, retaining a small area of cortex. The pieces vary in soze from 33.5mm long x 14.4mm wide down to 16.4mm long x 7.2mm wide.

Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Published
A blade-like flake, possibly a core rejuvination flake (debitage) dating to the prehistoric period, possibly the Mesolithic period. The secondary flake is made on a brown flint with the lateral edges showing some recortication. There are several long thin removals on the dorsal side. There is a post-depositional break at the proximal end which has removed any evidence of the bulb or platform, although some radiating fracture lines can be seen. This flake was probably struck with a soft hammer (bone). The flake is not particularly diagnostic and although the long thin removals suggest …

A flint flake on a secondary removal. The flake is long and thin with a roughly triangular cross section and does not have any retouch. There is a long flake scar on the dorsal surface of the flake. The size and shape of the flake suggests a late Mesolithic to Neolithic date.
