Record ID: LANCUM-ADCF41
Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A large flake of dark flint, probably debitage which may have been shaped into a crude scraper. It appears to have been further worked, showing three removals for microliths from one edge of the dorsal side. The dorsal side has various areas of conchoidal ripples, but these appear to be from later damage rather than knapping. There is evidence of removal of a large flake at the proximal end. The ventral side retains a large area of cortex. The length is 52mm, the width is 40mm mm, and thickness is 15mm

Perhaps a Late Mesolithic or Early Neolithic 6500 - 2900 BC worked flint fragment which is could be debitage but as there is a cutting edge on one side is probably part of a broken blade. The flint is caramel with some white speckling suggesting patination from frost damage. It is unusual for the caramel colour flint to be worked possibly because as it is no where near the robust of the flint types. However there is no natural flint occurring in the area and it may well have been found or brought from elsewhere. There were a range of materials worked in the Mesolithic including chert,…

Flint implement possibly a core used for striking microliths in the Mesolithic 8300 - 4500 BC. The flint is white and perhaps originates from the Yorkshire Wolds or could alternatively be worked beach flint from the Lancashire coast. There are 5 blade scars where microliths have been removed.The length is 30mm and the width 21mm.

County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Black Pennines chert borer possibly Late Mesolithic to Early Neolithic 6500-2900 BC. The chert is a dull black in colour with traces of the original white banding at the distal end. The surface reveals traces of weathering but this would be consistent with the original working of the weathered face for extraction. There are known sources of black chert in the South Pennines and this may well be naturally occurring around Boulsworth Hill and Thursden Valley. The length is 42mm, the width 30mm and the depth 16mm.

Mesolithic/Neolithic largely unmodified flake to judge from the negative scars on the dorsal surface 8300-2100 BC. The flint is grey with white patches with a striking platform. The dorsal face is concave with a bulb of percussion at the proximal end, ripples and evidence of retouching along a curved edge to the distal point. The ventral face is slightly convex with numerous blade scars and has been extensively worked at the proximal probably for the purpose of hafting. The arrises (the crests between each flake) on the right side. The arrises on the left, in contrast, are sharp The f…
