A complete knapped lithic implement of Neolithic date, circa 4000 - 2300 BC. The implement is a scraper, designed to be held between the thumb and forefinger, formed from a secondary flake which is D-shaped in plan and section. The ventral surface is smooth. The dorsal surface displays multiple removals with long and short, semi-abrupt, sub-parallel retouch along the curved edge. The flint is a light grey/white in colour. The implement is 27.3mm long, 26.1mm wide, 9.1mm thick and weighs 6.7g. Scrapers are fairly ubiquitous throughout prehistory and are generally less chronologic…

The ventral face is unworked and reveals the mottled translucent grey colour of the flint. The worked flake is 40.93mm in length, 36.44mm in width and 11.06mm in thickness. The weight of the flint is 22.32g.

Complete rounded flint scraper probably dating from the Neolithic (c. 4000 - 2300 BC). The scraper is largely circular in shape with a flat and smooth ventral face and a bulbous distal face that has invasive and scaled semi-abrupt retouch covering approximately 60% of the surface. The flint is translucent and grey in colour, with some small white patches. There is a patch of cortex on the distal face covering the unworked section. There is a small short, scaled and semi-abrupt retouched section along the edge on the ventral face corresponding to the cortex on the distal face. The scra…

Complete lithic implement formed from a flint flake, probably dating to Neolithic or Bronze Age (c. 4000 - 801 BC). The flake is sub-rectangular in profile, and convex, created from translucent grey flint with white spots. The lithic implement is flatter at one end and more bulbous at the other end. There is long sub-parallel retouch along one long side. Towards the more bulbous end of the flake the retouch becomes more scaled, although one's impression of this is obscured by a patch of recortication. The angle of retouch also becomes steeper towards the more bulbous end, changing fro…
