Object type: LEAF ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Dorset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Flint leaf-shaped arrowhead of Late Neolithic date. Light grey-brown flint patinated to almost completely white with small patches of iron staining and a mid gloss surface. The arrowhead is roughly lozenge-shaped and is pressure flaked around the edges on both faces. The dorsal face retains traces of larger flaking scars and waves of percussion can be seen ventrally. The proximal point is slightly thickened over where the bulb of percussion would be. There is a small amount of recent damage along the edges. This is a fairly coarsely made example of such arrowheads. Date: Late Neolithi…

A flaked flint rough-out for an axe or adze. Pale grey flint with a heavy off-white patina and iron staining. This has been made on a large flake, the striking platform of which is still evident at the proximal end. The rough-out is asymmetrical and trapezoidal in outline, flaring towards the distal end. It also thickens distally. On the ventral face the cutting edge is quite steep, but the dorsal face is flatter resulting in a shallower drop to the cutting edge. The faces and edges of the rough-out are extensively flaked. There is some recent edge damage along the cutting edge. The s…

A complete small flint core dating from the late Mesolithic 6,300-4,300 BC to early Neolithic period 4,500-3,500 BC. In plan, the core is oval and in section it is pointed sub-oval. The core has had many blade removals of various sizes. Opposite the butt end there is a natural fault within the flint, which probably resulted in the core being discarded. There is one very small patch of cortex remaining to one edge. The core is a milky /grey: silky smooth with a less siliceous patch below the butt end. Dimensions are: Height from butt end, 36.19 mm.
