County: North Lincolnshire

Pale grey flint debitage fragment. A narrow straight-sided flake with long narrow flakes struck from its dorsal side and with an undulating ventral surface; a white patina has developed over struck surfaces suggesting the object has endured exposure to a calcareous environment. Chips a either end reveal the original tint of the flint, which is probably from the Lincolnshire Wolds. Suggested date: Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC Length: 23.6mm, Width: 10.2mm, Thickness: 3.7mm, Weight: 1.02gms

Flint debitage. Six tiny [of lengths between 24.5mm to 9.4mm] flakes with scars from the removal of narrow or parallel flakes from their dorsal sides, and with flat or bulbar ventral surfaces. A creamy patina across all struck surfaces suggests the objects have subsequently endured a period of exposure to a calcareous environment, and iron-spotting may suggest their incorporation in gravel. As the find-spot is not on chalk the patina may hint that it has been imported. Suggested date: Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC Combined Weight: 5.54gms

Flint possible core fragment. A small chunk with narrow parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and  with a rounded or bulbar ventral surface. A creamy patina across all struck surfaces suggests the object has subsequently endured a period of exposure to a calcareous environment, and iron-spotting may suggest its incorporation in gravel.

Probably mid-brown flint debitage. A thin flake with narrow parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side  and with a flat ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows one long edge. Fire-crazed overall. A creamy patina lost at a chip at one end [which reveals the tint of the flint] may suggest that the object has endured exposure to a calcareous environment, and hence that it may have been imported to its find spot, which is not on chalk.

Patinated flint debitage with some iron-stained spots. Seven thin flakes [of lengths between 33.8mm and 20.3mm], all with long narrow parallel flakes struck from their dorsal surfaces. The dorsal surfaces are either flat or, for the three smallest flakes, slightly concave. The patina may indicate the objects have endured exposure to a calcareous environment. As the find-spot is not on chalk, this might hint at the importation of chalk and flints, as for building, road-making or marling, in which artefacts were accidentally incorporated.

Dark grey flint with re-formed cortex, core. A pyramidal core with long narrow parallel flakes removed by unidirectional working from a broad flat platform. The working was not carried all round the object. A dense milky patina has extended across all struck surfaces and may argue a subsequent long period of exposure to a calcareous environment. Where this appears on the Wolds it is a local environmental effect and is very common. However, such patination is rare in the assemblage presented from Scotter, so this object may have been imported, perhaps in gravel or with chalk used to mar…

Opaque pale grey flint possible core fragment. A thin sub-rectangular flake with broad and narrow long flakes removed by unidirectional working from a flat platform. Both the long edges may be serrated, though this is more easily felt than observed; along one long side the putative serration may be accompanied by very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect. The ventral surface is flat. If not a core, this might alternatively be a plano-convex knife, perhaps unfinished.

Grey flint with cortex, core fragment. Probably part of a pyramidal core, with narrow parallel flakes removed by unidirectional working from a flat platform; one or two sides appear to have parted from the object during this activity. The penultimate episode seems to have been the removal of another thin narrow flake from the left [as illustrated] side of the striking platform. The lack of subsequent patination might suggest this object to have then been incorporated into a sealed deposit. Suggested date: possibly Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC.

Flint possible scraper. Oval or cockle-shell-shaped chunk with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side by hard hammer working and with a concave spall on its ventral side. It is unclear which of the opposed flat edges might represent a striking platform; the finder’s kind suggestion this might be a core could admit the possibility that both were. Pale honey coloured, perhaps from exposure to a calcareous environment, and orange stained from its incorporation into gravel. Suggested date: Early Mesolithic, 10000-7000 BC. Length: 44.8mm, Width: 43.1mm, Thickness: 15.1mm, Weight: 34.43gms

Flint scraper. An oval flake with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side by multangular hard hammer strike, a bulb at the base of the ventral side with an adjacent striking platform. Some further damage may be adventitious. Short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows the curving edge, and part of that edge is crushed or battered. The flint has an opaque pale honey tint which may arise from its long exposure to a calcareous environment, though the iron staining which might be expected on a river-rolled flint is very limited and might more usually identify an early pie…

Dark grey flint with cortex, core fragment. A chunk struck from a nodule leaving a broad striking platform and a subsequently broken bulb. Zones of probably unidirectional working have trimmed long narrow parallel flakes, probably from a flat striking platform. The ventral surface is jaggedly broken. Almost all struck surfaces were subsequently coated in misty [dorsal side] or dense creamy [ventral side] patina, suggesting a period of exposure to a calcareous environment.

Flint debitage. Ten small chips, all with long narrow parallel flakes removed from their dorsal sides, most with flat ventral surfaces. A dense creamy patina suggests they were subsequently exposed to a calcareous environment, a common feature of flint reported hereabouts, though apparently unrelated to the local geology.

Flint hollow scraper. Long narrow flake with long narrow parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a slightly concave rippled ventral surface. Very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect defines a curved notch in the middle of one long edge, apt to the trimming of arrow shafts.

Flint debitage. Ten small flakes, all bearing the scars from the removal of long and frequently narrow parallel flakes from their dorsal sides, and with concave ventral surfaces. All bear a dense creamy patina with occasional orange spots, which might indicate all had endured prolonged exposure to a calcareous environment and had perhaps been incorporated into gravels. It is uncertain whether such a calcareous environment can be identified near the find-spot, though this surface is typical of the majority of flint reported from the vicinity. This could suggest the relocation of early …

Sub-triangular flake with long parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side by unidirectional working, an undulating ventral surface with a bulb at its narrower end, and with very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect blunting or roughening one long edge, perhaps to permit pressure to be exerted while using the opposite long edge as a cutting tool.

Flint possible fabricator, as kindly suggested by the finder. An elongated oval triangular-section flint with one pointed end and one obliquely broken. Edge-on chips have probably occurred adventitiously.
