Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
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…

A complete flint Scraper of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithic is sub-triangular in plan and concavo-convex in section. The dorsal surface has a minor amount of retained cortex along the proximal edge. The left and right hand edges have fine, semi-abrupt retouch. The distal end tapers to a slight point and the proximal end has been abruptly blunted. The ventral surface is slightly concave and has shallow ripples of percussion emanating from a small bulb of percussion situated at the proximal end. The flake retains a minor amount of cortex and is therefore a secondary flake. …

A complete flint Scraper of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithic is sub-rectangular in plan and concavo-convex in section. The dorsal surface has three predominant negative scars, and short, scaled flaking along the proximal edge. The left and right hand edges have semi-abrupt retouch. The proximal and distal ends have been abruptly blunted. The ventral surface is slightly concave due to a single large negative scar situated above a retained bulb of percussion along the proximal end. The flake retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flint is grey in colour wi…

A complete flint Core Rejuvenation Flake of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithic is sub-rectangular in plan and concavo-convex in section. The dorsal surface contains multiple negative scars with corresponding arrises and retained cortex along distal edge. Lithic has a rectangular void, possibly caused by natural processes. The distal end is flat and the proximal end tapers to a point. The ventral surface is slightly concave. The flake retains a minor amount of cortex and is therefore a secondary flake. The flint is grey in colour with cream inclusions throughout, the cortex …
