Record ID: NLM-A84904
Object type: KNIFE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Grey semi-translucent flint, of good quality, knife. Plano-convex knapped blade, bearing three long blade removal scars on the dorsal face, and a bulb of percussion on the ventral surface showing where the blade was removed from the core after these long flakes had been removed. This working was probably with hard hammer, but pressure flaked retouch appears along both long edges. The removal of long thin flakes and the selection of apt material tend to indicate an earlier Neolithic date; however, the plano-convex form anticipates later blade and fabricator forms, so a broader date-ran…

Object type: CORE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Black flint with dull grey band (though this perhaps arises from impact), from an irregular nodule with light external patination. Probably good quality flint, as from the East Coast or redeposited in glacial drift. Possible Core. Irregular struck flint, with apparently controlled hard hammer flake removal scars on four faces. Further conchoidal fractures appear to be of very recent date, and a superficial appearance of retouch along edges probably also arises from fortuitous recent damage. The collection of this material, and the recognition of its potential for tool mak…

Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
White patinated flint with cortex. Possible debitage. Flake with striking platform and bulb of percussion on its ventral surface; however, the dorsal surface does not exhibit evidence for controlled flake removal, so this object cannot be firmly associated with tool making (as opposed to preparation of material for such working). Suggested date: Neolithic to Early Bronze Age, 3500-1500 BC. Length: 38.3mm, Width: 30mm, Thickness: 6.6mm, Weight: 8.08gms.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Cloudy mid grey flint scraper. Flint flake with knapping scars showing hard hammer removal of three long flakes from the dorsal surface at one end, and a bulb of percussion on the ventral surface at the other end, arising from the subsequent detaching of this flake from a core. This provided an oval blank of angular plano-convex profile. The striking platform from initial flake removal was then modified by pressure flaking to create an end scraper. The confident removal of long flakes suggests a Neolithic date. Suggested date: Neolithic, 3500-2100 BC. Length: 43.21mm, Width: 27.4…

White patinated flint with relict of cortex Debitage. Struck flake, with scars from removal of long flakes before this in turn was detached from the core by hard hammer working; all the working appears to have been from the same end.

Object type: TRANSVERSE ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published Find published
Mottled grey semi-translucent flint of high quality transverse arrowhead. Knapped flint transverse arrow head. A notched lozenge-shaped flint with long blade removal scars on what is taken to be the dorsal side hammer and pressure flaking particularly on the rear end of blade; some further scars appear to be struck from the edges and probably represent post-depositional damage. This flint was previously noted by Mike Hemblade of the North Lincolnshire Historic Environment Record. Suggested date: Neolithic, 3500-2100 BC. Length: 50.8mm, Width: 21.1mm, Thickness: 5mm, Weight: 3.65gms.

Stone, Volcanic Tufa (non-specialist identification by MF) polished axehead. One end of a polished stone axe, broken short of its mid-point with a large chip spalled from the break in antiquity. Of oval section with a well-preserved cutting edge which bears two small chips. Though the colour is now brown overall this is probably staining from the sandy local soil. Small chips of recent damage reveal a grey-green colour suggesting this to be a Group 6 axe from Langdale Pike, Cumbria. Suggested date: Neolithic, 3500-2100 BC.
