A complete flint Scraper of Neolithic date (3450-2350 BC). The lithic is sub-triangular in plan and concavo-convex in section. The dorsal surface has three predominant negative scars and short stepped flaking and semi-abrupt retouch along both the left and right hand edges. The proximal and distal ends have been abruptly blunted. The ventral surface is slightly convex and has a small bulb of percussion situated at the distal end. The flake retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flint is grey in colour with cream inclusions throughout. Length: 15.45mm, Width: 18…

The dorsal surface contains 1 predominant negative scar with corresponding arrises and shallow ripples of percussion emanating from the proximal end. The remainder of the dorsal surface retaines a large amount of cortex. The proximal and left hand edge have been abruptly blunted, while the distal and right hand edges show short, parallel, semi-abrupt retouch. The ventral surface is predominantly flat with a bulb of percussion at the proximal end and sha…

A group of 4 flint worked flakes of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithics are sub-rectangular in plan and plano-convex in section. Lithic no. 1 has a prominent negative scar with corresponding arrises on the dorsal surface. None of the flakes retain any cortex and are therefore tertiary flakes. The flint is a dark grey in colour. Dimensions: No. 1: Length- 12.07mm, Width- 9.13mm, Thickness- 5.31mm, Weight- 0.8g No. 2: Length- 14.64mm, Width- 9.89mm, Thickness- 7.2mm, Weight- 0.7g No. 3: Length- 11.35mm, Width- 4.95mm, Thick…

County: Gateshead
Workflow stage: Published
A group of 5 flints, either flint working debitage or possible Lithic Implements of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithics are sub-triangular in plan and concaveo-convex in section. All of the lithics taper to a point on the distal end. Lithic no. 2 has a notched aspect at the proximal end possibly from a hinged flake removal. Lithic no. 5 retains some retain some cortex on the dorsal surface and is therefore a secondary flake. The others retain no cortex and are therefore tertiary flakes. The flint is grey in colour aside from the dorsal surface of flake 3 where it is a reddi…

A group of 3 flint worked flakes of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithics are sub-rectangular in plan and plano-convex in section. All of the lithics show semi-abrupt retouch on at least one edge and taper to a point on the distal end. Lithic no. 3 retains some retain some cortex on the dorsal surface and is therefore a secondary flake. Others retain no cortex and are therefore tertiary flakes. The flint is grey in colour.

A group of 2 flint worked flakes of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithics are sub-ovate in plan and plano-convex in section. Both lithics have a notched aspect at the distal end caused by a hinged flake removal. They also both retain cortex (on the dorsal surface of flake no. 1 and on the left hand edge of flake no.2) and are therefore secondary flakes The flakes are dark grey in colour. The cortex is a grey in colour. Dimensions: No. 1: Length- 36.73mm, Width- 24.57mm, Thickness- 8.58mm, Weight- 5.5g No. 2: Length- 19.63mm, Width- 13.80mm, Thickness- 5.71mm, Weight- 1.4g
