Record ID: WAW-CEF038
Object type: BLADE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: County of Herefordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A Mesolithic or early Neolithic flint bladelet. The bladelet does not appear to have been subject to further retouch after having been struck from its core. It is trapezoidal in shape and the distal and proximal ends are missing. It measures 14.06mm long, 7.53mm wide, 2.7mm thick and weighs 0.3 grams. The flint is white to pale grey in colour due to its patination. The blade dates to the Mesolithic to early Neolithic periods (-8300 - -2900).

A Neolithic flint blade from the outer area of the core. The flint is probably a river sourced pebble. The blade shows both hinge fractures on the front (dorsal) face and choncoidal fractures and bulb of percussion on the reverse (ventral). The striking platform is also present. The retouch on the long edges is from indirect percussion and is neat and regular. The cortex suggests that several blades have been removed from the core prior to the removal of this flake

Snapped knapped flint blade of probable later Mesolithic (6500 - 4500 BC). The flint is broadly sub-rectangular in plan and lentoid in cross section. The bulb of percussion and striking platform are present although the conchoidal fractures are indistinct. The bulb has been trimmed and flaked. The dorsal face show several long flake scars. One of the long edges as well as the blunt end have been reworked with relatively neat and regular facets. The snapped edge is broad crescent shape also exhibiting slight retouch. The flint is a grey colour with a series of flaws and different …

A snapped flint blade of later Mesolithic date (4000 -3000 BC). The blade is rectangular in plan and has a crested cross section. The striking platform and bulb of percussion are lost. The dorsal face has a large area of cortex present suggesting that this should be claseed as secondary debitage . One of thelong edges has been reworked with neat and even scaled retouch which creates a good cutting and scraping edge. The lower section of the opposite long edge shows signs of abrupt direct abrupt retouch. The flint is relatively coarse and a blackish grey colour with few areas of mottli…

A snapped flint blade of later Mesolithic date (4000 -3000 BC). The blade is rectangular in plan and has a crested cross section. Both the upper and lower edges of the blade are snapped - both have a grey coloured developed surface patina. The snapping has also removed the striking platform and bulb of percussion. The long edges have not been reworked although movement in the plough soil suggests abrupt retouch is present. The flint is relatively coarse and a mid grey mottled colour with small areas of translucent milky grey white coloured patina. The blade measures 31mm in length,…

A snapped flint blade of later Mesolithic date (4000 -3000 BC). The blade is rectangular in plan with a tapering point at the distal end' it has a shallow crested cross section. The striking platform and bulb of percussion are lost. The left habd long edge has been reworked with abrupt retouch.

An unusual notched snapped blade formed of mid grey mottled flint of later Mesolithic date. The blade has been deliberately snapped and the base of the slender flake survives. One edge (left hand) has a burin removal which has created a slight step. The opposite edge has a deliberately formed U shaped notch, which is reworked on both faces with neat and well formed scaled and overlapping secondary flaking. This reworking is most apparent on the dorsal face, although on the ventral the tip is thinned by parallel flaking. One long edge has a small section of cortex suggesting this was f…

Flint blade like flake of later Mesolithic date (4000 -3000 BC). The flake is broadly rectangular in plan and has a crested (triangular shaped) cross section. The striking platform and bulb of percussion have been removed by trimming / snapping. There is no evidence of the edges being reworked - and it is this represents a piece of secondary debitage / blade removal during preparation of a new core. The blade is a mid mottled grey colour with a large piece of white cortex along one edge. It measures: 18.2mm in length, 11.1mm width, is 3.7mm thick and weighs 0.6 grams.

A Mesolithic notched blade. The blade is sub-rectangular in shape and measures 25.44 mm long, 12.52 mm wide and 3.83 mm thick. It weighs 1.6 grams. A notch is located on the right lateral edge near to the proximal end of the blade, applied using pressure flaking from the ventral face. A further smaller notch is situated mid way up the left lateral edge, this time applied from the ventral surface. The lack of an obvious bulb of percussion suggests that the blade was snapped, and based on the even patina at the break this probably occurred in prehistory. The flint has a pale cream to gr…

A Mesolithic blade. The blade was probably a waste piece, although there is very possible retouch on the left lateral edge at the distal end. It measures 26.68 mm long, 7.53 mm long, 4.29 mm thick and weighs 0.8 grams. It is sub-triangular in section, with a central ridge which is almost parallel to the lateral edges. It is slightly convexed on the ventral face. The flint has a pale grey patina.
