County: Swindon
Workflow stage: 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.

Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Swindon
Workflow stage: 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 …

In shape the axehead has a curved cutting edge (51.81mm wide) and one steeply angled surviving edge (the other is missing), so it looks rather triangular in shape and probably was originally not much long than it is now. In cross-section, the axehead is D-shaped, having a pronounced curve to one face while the other…

Workflow stage: Published
A possible fragment of Neolithic polished axehead, the fabric of which is possibly a greenstone with micaceous or quartz inclusions. It measures 55.69x57.40x23.84mm and weighs 72.4g.
The object is broken on all edges with one polished face, showing a fault line and a line of iron staining/ residue. The curvature of the object seems possibly a little too round for an axehead, and Ciorstaidh Hayward Trevarthen comments (from images only) that in this case it could possibly be part of a broken macehead.
Dr Kevin Leahy also suspects that this is not a axehead as its section lacks sym…
