Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: County of Herefordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A complete flint flake dating from between the Mesolithic and Bronze Age. The flake is roughly triangular in shape and has a white patinated surface. The dorsal surface bears multiple removal scars, including many hinged and stepped fractures at the proximal end. The butt is still present and is simple. This flake is likely debitage, perhaps a rejuvenation flake.

Flint debitage, this is a tertiary flake. This is a long thin flake with a convexo-concave profile. There are two arrises on the dorsal and a small bulb of percussion on the ventral. there are chips taken out of one side but this natural damage rather that reworking. Mode grey flint with lighter speckles.

Flint debitage, this is a tertiary flake. The flint has a large bulb of percussion on the ventral and mutable flaking scars on the dorsal. There as small flaking scars on both sides of the flint, but this is the result of natural process rather than knapping. Dark grey flint with lighter patches that has a general prehistoric date

Small flint waste flake / debitage probably dating from the Neolithic period (3500 - 2100 BC). The flake is irregular in both plan and profile. It has number of regular facets (caused by flaking) on the upper (dorsal) face of the flake. There is a patch of cortex (the rough outer skin of the flint nodule) present on the dorsal edge. This suggests that this flake comes from the secondary phase of tool production. The cortex is white and is similar to that of flint nodules from chalk areas. The underside (ventral face) of the flake shows a small neat bulb of percussion, which is position…

Relatively large flint scraper (side and end) of probable later Neolithic date (2900 - 2100 BC). The scraper is formed from a large chunky flint secondary waste flake, which was probably a bi-product of other tool production. It is broadly oval in plan and cross section. The scraper measures 28.8mm length, 26.9mm width, is 9.6mm thick and weighs 6.94 grams. The scraper has significant retouch applied to the upper (dorsal) face. This secondary working is primarily limited to the cutting edges positioned along one side and the base. Here a series of regular overlapping neat smal…

Irregular flake of debitage, from the secondary phase of tool making: it most likely dates from the later Neolithic period (2900-2100 BC). The upper dorsal face exhibits lateral flake scars from the removal or narrow flakes. The dorsal face also has a large amount of white cortex, similar to that seen on nodule of flint procured from chalk. The reverse (ventral) face has a single bulb of percussion and associated conchoidal ripples. The direction of this is at 90 degree to that on the ventral face. It is possible that part of one edge has been reworked with short blunt secondary flakin…

A grey / black coloured secondary debitage flake that has been reworked in one area to form a knife or scraper. The flake is broadly oval with a deliberately snapped edge. The dorsal face shows a number of multi-direction flake removals presuambly created prior to removal from the core. The ventral face has a clear bulb of percussion - this has been thinned and then the outer edge has been reworked with neat invasive retouch creating a small cutting / scraping edge. The cortex is white chalk limestone derived suggesting that this flint is of a better quality to much sourced locally. T…

Mid mottled grey coloured very thin / fine flake of tertiary debitage of probable Neolithic or possible early Bronze Age date. The flake has a series of scar flake removals on the dorsal face and choncoidal ripples on the ventral. The edges are not retouched. The thinness of the flake suggests this was a thinning flake from a core tool. The flake measures 20.2mm length, 25.2mm width is 2.8mm thick and weighs 1.4 grams.

A chunk or chip of mottled mid grey coloured tertiary debitage of probable Neolithic - Iron Age date. The flake is irregular in plan and section with a number of old regular and modern irregular flake removals. The upper edge seems to be reworked with direct retouch - although this may be a modern artefact of movement in the soil. The flake measures 25.1mm length, 11.8mm width, is 7.4mm thick and weighs 1.6 grams.

Large piece of black coloured flint blade like flake of secondary debitage of probable later Meolithic or Early Neolithic date. The flake has been damaged in the ploughsoil and several new irregular flakes are present. Originally the dorsal face had several flake scars and a large area of white coloured limestone / chalk derived cortex. The ventral face has the remains of the bulb of percussion - although some of it is lost due to the top of the blade being damaged. The base of teh blade has an area of invasive retouch creating a cutting / scraping egde. The colour of the flint sugges…

Eight flakes of tertiary debitage (waste from tool making) from the Neolithic period (3500 - 2000 BC). None of the flakes have exterior cortex on; many have multiple flake facets although none are reworked to form a tool. The colour and the quality of the flint varies, from a grey to brown colour. The majority is probably derived from glacial / riverine gravels. The debitage has a bulk weight of 8.61 grams

one piece of secondary debitage probably dating from the Neolithic period (3500-2100 BC). The fragment is poorly knapped and a number of hinge and cleaved fractures are present. There is no sign of secondary falking or detailled reworking. It most likely reporesents rough working prior to knapping. A large piece of white cortex is present suggesting that the flint originates from a limestone / chalk area. The debitage measures 49.7mm length, is 20.0mm wide, 8.4mm thick and weighs 8.04 grams

Heavily abraded tertiary debitage with multiple flaking areas, although many may be uncontrolled and result from movement in the plough soil. The debitage is most likely waste from tool making in the Neolithic period (3500 - 2100 BC). The flint is a mid greyish green colour with mottled brown inclusions. There is no obvious reworking to form a known tool type. The debitage measures 28.8mm length, 17.4mm width and is 8.7mm thick; it weighs 4.69 grams

Two fine waste flakes, tertiary debitage, from the final phase of tool making dated broadly to the late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age periods (3500 - 1800 BC). The flint is a mid cream grey colour. There is no obvious reworking to form a known tool type. The fineness (thinness) of the flakes suggests that these maybe from the final stage of working. One of the flakes maybe burnt as is slightly crystalline in nature The debitage measures 1. 27.9mm length, 20.4mm width and is 2.8mm thick; it weighs 1.59 grams 2. 22.2mm length, 17.8mm width and is 3.3mm thick; it weighs 1.28 grams

Three pieces of tertiary debitage, dated broadly to the Neolithic period (3500-2100 BC). Two of the three pieces are knapped from a mid grey chert; the third is a light grey flint. It is possible that the chert flakes may also have been burnt as the surfaces are slightly crazed. Clear areas of flake scaring can be seen on the dorsal faces and there is no evidence of retouch / reuse on the edges.
