Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete flint microlith of early Mesolithic date (Clark Group F; Jacobi Group C, 10a), probably a Horsham point. The original form was asymmetrical and triangular. One long side is backed with abrupt retouch, the convex side feathers to an edge which has a patch of short abrupt retouch blunting it at the proximal end and an area of what may be use related damage towards the distal end. The proximal end is concave with a hollow base defined by abrupt retouch. The distal point has broken off.

Object type: MICROLITH
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Complete geometric microlith, of mid grey flint with misty paler grey patination, of Jacobi, R. (1978) Group 4, obliquely, finely, and very steeply retouched (c. 90 degrees to the faces) to form a convex “back” to the also convex sharp edge opposing the blunt retouch, the whole flint giving a lenticular plan form with an isosceles triangle cross section. Mesolithic, possibly late due to the small size, 7,000 to 4,000 BC.
