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…

Late Neolithic or early Bronze Age (c. 2500 to 1500 B.C) end scraper: The flint scraper is knapped from a mottled light beige coloured flint. In plan it is a sub-oval and in profile almost semi-circular with a slightly flattened apex on the dorsal face. The dorsal face (the face with the most scars) has retouch around the lateral edges and the distal end. The retouch is formed by long, narrow parallel negative scars. The angle of the retouch is c. 45 degrees. On the dorsal surface there is a patch of cortex remaining. The ventral face (smooth face) has bulbar scars, bulb of percussion…

Neolithic to early Bronze Age (c. 4000 to 1000BC) scraper: The scraper appears to be knapped from a tertiary flake which is sub oval. The dorsal surface has multiple scars on the surface and some recent damage. The distal end has re-touch scars which are sub-parallel, are invasive and abrupt. The ventral surface has a bulb of percussion, and conchoidal ripples. The bulb of percussion has also been partly removed by a flake. The scraper is knapped from flint which is a mottled mid brown colour and has since developed a mottled white and grey patina. The scraper, measures 23.08mm long, …
