Dark grey-brown flint blade. A thick sub-triangular flake with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a bulbar ventral surface with smaller flakes struck by hard hammer working from the ventral aspect. Very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows one long straight edge, possibly forming a knife on whose cutting edge pressure might be brought to bear with the user’s thumb resting in the dorsal concave surface. Dark brownish flint seems associated with early and skilful flint-working in our region. The edges are so fresh as to suggest the recent dist…

Dark grey flint with pale band, possible debitage. A small irregular flake with possible scalar invasive retouch of its dorsal side and a prominent bulb and adjacent platform on the ventral surface. If indeed a struck flake, this was perhaps incorporated into a sealed context as there is only a trace of patina – on the putative striking platform. Suggested date: possibly Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC Length: 23.3mm, Width: 24.1mm, Thickness: 6.6mm, Weight: 2.79gms

Orange flint debitage. A small thick sub-triangular flake with flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a bulb at one end of a slightly concave ventral surface. The finder notes this as a rare appearance of a distinctive orange-brown flint or chert, a material only hitherto recognised as the material selected to make the largest and possibly earliest scraper reported from the vicinity. Probably chipped after it was discarded. Suggested date: possibly Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC Length: 28.7mm, Width: 25.5mm, Thickness: 8mm, Weight: 5.35gms

Grey flint with cortex, burnt debitage. A small thick flake with thick cortex on its dorsal side and a lightly rippled ventral surface. White patina accumulated over this surface, suggesting it endured a period of exposure to a calcareous environment. One end is recently broken and the other reveals a crystalline appearance arising from burning, which may have embrittled the broken end.

Brown flint scraper, as kindly identified by the finder. A thick oval flake with broad flake struck from its dorsal side and with a slightly bulbar ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows a curving edge extending about half way round the object. The tan colour may arise from the selection of a distinctively tinted stone; there is no trace of iron spotting or rolling.

Flint debitage; the finder kindly suggests a function as a possible knife. An oval flake with three large flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a bulb and platform at the broader end of the ventral surface. A dense creamy patina suggests the object has subsequently endured prolonged exposure to a calcareous environment.

Banded tan and white flint with cortex, possible backed blade. The finder kindly suggests this may be a side scraper. A thick flake with narrow flakes removed from its dorsal side and with a tiny bulb at the narrower end of a concave ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows one long edge, with cortex retained on the opposite long edge to permit pressure to be brought to bear on the working edge.

Grey-brown flint, possibly collected from the East Coast, debitage. An oval flake representing the first strike from a water-rolled flint cobble, with a tiny striking platform at one end and a slightly concave ventral surface. A dense white patina on the exposed surfaces suggests the flake was subsequently exposed to a calcareous environment.  A short [14mm] extent of very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect trims the surface deposit on that side and shows a very short episode of reuse, and this exposed surface is not patinated, perhaps suggesting the object was d…

Dark grey flint debitage. A thick flake with broad flake removal scars on it dorsal side and an undulating ventral surface with a single flake trimmed by hard hammer strike from the ventral aspect. Short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect occurs at the narrower end, leading the finder to suggest use as an end scraper. A dense white patina accumulated overall, suggesting a long period of exposure to a calcareous environment. The patina is disrupted by more recent edge-on chips.

Dark grey flint with re-forming cortex spot, core. A thin chunk with scars from bipolar flake removal, and with a grey misty patina over all struck surfaces suggesting a period of exposure to a calcareous environment. This is removed by short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect, probably indicating the reuse of a previously discarded item. The retouch was not itself patinated, so the object may have been incorporated into a sealed context shortly after the final reuse.

Dark grey-brown flint, possibly collected from the East Coast, sickle fragment. Curved flake with opposed concave and convex long edges and a rounded end, and with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side, and with a rippled flat to slightly concave ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch executed from the ventral aspect follows the curve of the concave long edge. A broken end may signal the end of the primary use, if it was not always a short-bladed tool. A creamy misty patina then developed over all struck surfaces, later to be removed by limited short abrupt retouch executed from the …

Brown toffee-coloured and tan banded flint with cortex strip, possible side scraper, as kindly identified by the finder. A thick flake with abroad flake struck from its /dorsal side and with a bulbar ?ventral surface. Angled scalar retouch executed from the ?dorsal aspect defines a notch. The opposite long edge is flat and might permit pressure to be brought to bear on the putative working edge.

Flint core, as kindly identified by the finder. A thick chunk with broad and narrow flakes removed by principally unilateral working from a large near-semi-circular striking platform. A dense creamy patina then accumulated overall, suggesting a period of exposure to a calcareous environment, while iron spotting may indicate the subsequent inclusion of the object in gravels. Suggested date: possibly Neolithic [surface condition might point to an earlier date], 4000-2350 BC Height: 26.7mm, Width: 38.3mm, Thickness: 30.3mm, Weight: 26.89gms

Dark grey flint core fragment, as kindly identified by the finder. Subtriangular chunk with broad and narrow parallel flakes removed by probably unidirectional working; the last draft appears to have detached a large flake from the ventral or inner part of the core – as viewed from its striking platform. A dense white patina accumulated on all struck surfaces thereafter, suggesting the object then endured a long period of exposure to a calcareous environment. The underlying tint of the flint is revealed by recent chips. Suggested date: Early Neolithic, 4000-3500 BC Height: 33.5m…

Brown flint, possibly collected from the East Coast, lithic implement. Rhomboid flake with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a bulb at the broader end of a concave ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch trims a rough [?marine derived] surface from the dorsal surface, while very short abrupt retouch executed from the ventral aspect confers fine serrations, more readily felt than observed, along the opposite long edge. The lack of patina may suggest the object was subsequently incorporated into a sealed deposit whence it has only recently been disturbed. Suggested date: Ne…

Burnt flint possible debitage. Flake with opposed flat and slightly concave surfaces and battered all around, crazed by heat. The finder kindly suggests this to be a scraper, though if so, the working edges are uniformly hackled and battered, probably after the weakening of the fabric through inclusion in a fire.

Black flint scraper. Thick flake with a single broad flake struck from its [probably] dorsal side and a slightly bulbar ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch executed from [probably] the ventral aspect follows a curved edge. The opposite end is hackled, and some light crazing from heating appears elsewhere. The object may then have been broken at its butt end, and a light misty patina suggesting a rather limited period of exposure to a calcareous environment extends over both the previously struck surfaces and the edges of the putative basal break. When the heat damage occurred in this…

Probably brown flint [as revealed by a tiny chip] with thick cortex on one edge, debitage, with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a bulbar ventral surface. The dorsal side bears encrustation resembling a water-lain deposit, while the ventral surface bears a cloudy patina across its smooth surface. The edges are battered, probably adventitiously.
