Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Swindon
Workflow stage: Published Find published
An Early Neolithic (c. 3500-2500 BC) leaf-shaped flint arrowhead, measuring 42.39x22.51x7.47mm and weighing 5.40g. The tip is possibly damaged. The arrowhead is leaf-shaped in plan with one pointed end and one rounded end. It has had long flake removals from the dorsal face and edge retouch to both dorsal edges and the upper right ventral edge. It is plano-convex in cross-section. There are also traces of retouch along the dorsal proximal edge, which would have been hafted into the implement. The flint is a mottled grey in colour with patination spots.

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Swindon
Workflow stage: Published Find published
An incomplete (and most probably a fragment) of Neolithic (3500-2100 BC) flint Polished Axehead with tapering sides, Section faceted. Re-used as a core probably in the Neolithic or Bronze Age period. It measures 71.58x50.95x21.94mm and weighs 87.30g. The flint is heavily patinated and a greyish-white in colour, with traces of iron staining on both faces. One face retains much of its polishing, while the other has had a large part of its face removed. Both original ends of the axe are missing although both 8-9mm high polished-flat edges are mostly intact. Some of the flake removal …

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A flint possible core of Neolithic/ Early Bronze Age date (3500 - 1500 BC), measuring 32.30x30.64x19.99mm and weighing 21.01g. The flint has light patination spots and retains coretex on the top. The sides have multi-directional flake removal scars (although some are the result of natural damage), which usually indicates a Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age date, but it is often difficult to date flint objects in isolation - assemblages are easier as you can get an overall feel for the industry generating it (Ciorstaidh Hayward Trevarthen, Dorset FLO, pers.comm.). This possible cor…

Probably Neolithic retouched and notched flake, measuring 23.7x50.5x5.3(max)mm and weighing 5.07g. The lower left dorsal edge has been steeply worked.
