Object type: BLADE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Worcestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete struck / knapped blade, formed from a tertiary debitage flake, of probable Neolithic dating (c. 4,000 BC to c. 2, 350 BC). The probable blade has a sub trapezoidal cross section, and is sub rectangular in shape. Retouch is present along the long edges and the short side (short, subparallel, abrupt). The probable blade has been made from a piece of tertiary debitage, probably the remains of a core for making blades. The flake has been made from a dark grey flint, with little surface patination. Length: 29.2 mm Width: 22.1 mm Thickness: 5.2&n…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete flint probable scraper dating to the Neolithic period (c. 4000-2100 BC). The object has been formed from a tertiary mid- grey flint flake with some patination at the proximal end. The object is roughly triangular in plan and D-shaped in cross-section. The ventral face retains the bulb of percussion along one of the long edges and there are clear ripples of percussion. There is no retouch on the ventral face. The dorsal face has abrupt parallel retouch along the left hand edge.  Scrapers are fairly ubiquitous throug…

Object type: FABRICATOR
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Worcestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A knapped flint fabricator of probable Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date (c. 3000 B.C.-c. 1600 B.C.). The tool has been formed from a secondary black flint nodule. It has a triangular cross section with a small amount of cortex remaining on the dorsal surface. The ridge on the dorsal surface is backed with continuous retouch to facilitate handling. One end has heavy abrasion due to wear which continues down the right hand edge for the entire length of the tool. Such an object is thought to have been used to retouch other stone tools or possibly as a strike-a-light…
