Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
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 4 flint flakes of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithics are sub-rectangular in plan and plano-convex in section. All of the lithics retain some cortex (on the ventral surfaces of no. 1 and 4, the proximal end of no.2 and the right hand edge of no. 3) and are therefore secondary flakes. Flakes no. 2, 3 and 4 are all dark grey in colour while the first flake is a lighter grey. The cortex is cream and grey in colour.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Gateshead
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-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…
