Record ID: WMID-A01443
Object type: AXE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: County of Herefordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A prehistoric stone axe of probable early Neolithic date. The axe has been made from a fine grained igneous rock, dark grey in colour with fine white inclusions. The axe has been manufactured by chipping and grinding. The chipping is predominantly associated with the lateral edges and the butt of the axe. The blade has been formed through grinding of the body of the axe. The axe is fairly crude and not nearly so finely finished as some Neolithic axes. This may perhaps indicate that it was intended to be purely functional and not intended to be used as a status symbol. Damage to the bl…

A knapped flint discoidal scraper or knife of Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date (2900 - 1600 BC). The scraper is broadly oval in plan and lentoid in cross section, formed from a teritary flake. The upper / dorsal face of the scraper exhibits a central ridge. The lower / ventral surface exhibits a series of irregular and uncontrolled flake scars, suggesting movement and damage in the plough soil. The edges of the scraper demonstrates signs of retouch with indirect percussion. Some are uncontrolled in nature, but others are well spaced and neat, creating a serrated edge. Little…

Mesolithic to Neolithic (-8,300 to -2100) debitage: Primary flint flake with multiple scars and a strip of cortex on the dorsal surface. The ventral surface has conchoidal ripples, but the distal end is truncated but perhaps more recently and not intentionally. The proximal is also truncated, therefore the bulb of person is missing. The flint is a mottled light brown and white colour with a patina just starting to develop on the ventral and dorsal surfaces. 25.31mm long, 9.54mm wide and weighs 0.94g. The flake probably dates from the Mesolithic to Neolithic period.

Probable Mesolithic to early Bronze Age (8000 - 1000BC) retouched flake: The flint flake is knapped from a brown flint which has a strap of grey patina on the side edge. The ventral surface has a large bulb or percussion and slight conchoidal ripples. The dorsal surface has a negative scar. The distal end has a small curved notch which has been formed by re-touch. The flake measures 18.66mm long, 23.56mm wide, 6.25mm thick and weighs 2.33g. Retouched flakes are difficult to date as they are present throughout prehistory. Thus, a wide date range for this piece is suggested.

A broken pointed end of a finely worked bifacial tool of translucent brown flint with light and mid grey inclusions. It has been totally invasively worked. The plan is a pointed symmetrical leaf shape, very much like a leaf arrow head but for a somewhat thicker section. Close to the slightly oblique break the sharp margin has been slightly blunted which suggests that the tool was a kind of knife. The implement is 30.9mm in length, 33.35mm wide, 8.3mm thick and weighs 8.4 grams

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

A scraper formed on a large and irregular waste flake / secondary debitage dating from the Neolithic Period (3500 -2100BC). The flake is large and irregular being formed from relatively good flint, in plan it is sub-triangular whilst in section it is rectangular. Along one edges is an area of coarse external cortex; this would suggest that the flake has been formed from secondary waste / debitage. There is no evidence of a bulb of percussion on the lower (ventral) face; this has probably been removed when the flake was snapped. The dorsal (upper) face shows a series of flake facets or…

Small blade like flake of tertiary debitage of probable earlier Neolithic date (3500 - 2500 BC). The flake is an irregular rectangular shape and is formed on a mottled grey coloured flint. The upper edge is snapped and a number of vertical flake scars are present on the dorsal face. The ventral face is unworked. The long edges are feathered with abrupt retouch - although this is most likely to be as a result of movement in the ploughsoil - ratherthann deliberate reworking. The flake measures 26.4mm long, 18.4mm wide, 4.1mm thick, and weighs 1.3 grams.

A secondary flake of debitage of probable Neolithic date.
