County: Milton Keynes
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete flint probable Core Rejuvenation Flake of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The object is conical in shape and exhibits a single striking platform. There are multiple negative flake removals from blade production. The ventral surface is flat with two negative scars. All edges with the exception of the striking platform have rough semi-abrupt retouch and suggests the object is a utilised flake. The lithic retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flint is dark grey in colour. Length: 32.30mm, Width: 28.53mm, Thickness: 9.66mm, Weight: 10.8g.

A complete possible utilised Core Rejuvenation flake of Mesolithic date (9,000-3,450 BC). The lithic is sub-rectangular in plan and plano-convex in section. The dorsal surface is slightly convex and has seven predominant negative scars, one of which is a deep hinged flake removal at the distal end. The distal edge is flat and forms a portion of the striking platform. There is some retouch to the left- and right-hand edges which indicates the flake was reused. The ventral surface is predominantly flat and has a small bulb of percussion situated at the distal end. The flint is ligh…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete flint blade of Mesolithic to early Neolithic date. The tool is fairly broad and, apart from three arrises, has a flat upper surface. Both of the vertical outer edges are angled. The right hand edge is slightly serrated, perhaps deliberately or through use; the left hand edge retains the white flint cortex. The tool appears to have been broken off at the bottom. At the top of the reverse side is a diffuse bulb-of-percussion and rippling. The flint is a lightly patinated blueish-grey colour. The blade measures 33.2mm long, 12.4mm wide and 3.2mm thick. The weight is 1.42g.
