  • Thumbnail image of SUR-E67C13

Record ID: SUR-E67C13
Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A flint axehead of Neolithic date, 133mm in length, struck from a mottled grey flint and bifacially worked. The axehead is symmetrical on two axes and has a lenticular cross section, flaring smoothly to a rounded cutting edge 58.7mm wide. There is a large area of damage to the front edge which may be post depositional in origin. There are no areas of polishing. A patch of white cortex is retained at the centre of one face.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A scraper struck from a dark brown flint, 49mm in length, probably of Neolithic date. The scraper is semi-circular and there is semi-abrupt parallel retouch, most noticeably on one side. The dorsal surface and proximal end retain patches of cortex with no evidence for a prepared striking platform. The surface demonstrates water polish.

Object type: FABRICATOR
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete flint fabricator, 54.6mm in length, struck from a brown flint and of potential Mesolithic to early Bronze Age date. The tool has a triangular cross section and is worked on the dorsal surface only, with abrupt scaled retouch along the sides. The distal tip has low angle retouch to define a wedge shape with a rounded end. The ventral surface is unworked and the tool has broken across its width.

County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete retouched blade of probable Neolithic date, made from a light grey-brown flint. Only the proximal end remains; this has short abrupt scaled retouch down one or possibly both sides, perhaps suggesting that original tool was a backed blade or side scraper. The blub of percussion has been reduced on the ventral surface with long, low angle retouch.
