Record ID: YORYM-DE5574
Object type: RETOUCHED FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete retouched flake of Neolithic date (3500-2100 BC). The lithic is sub-rectangular in profile and plano-convex in section. The dorsal surface is convex with two predominant negative scars corresponding arrises. The proximal end has been abruptly blunted with multiple vertical flake removals creating a stepped effect. All other edges contain fine semi-abrupt retouch and the distal end has short parallel flaking. The ventral surface is predominantly flat with a small bulb of percussion situated at the proximal end. The lithic retains no cortex and is therefore a…

Object type: RETOUCHED FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint retouched flake of possible early Neolithic date, about 4000 BC - 3300 BC. The flake is formed on translucent light grey flint with some lighter inclusions and speckles of patination. The tertiary flake is ssub-rectangular in plan, tapering towards the distal end, and is trapezoidal in section with a double dorsal ridge. The left edge is worked from the ventral face with short, sub-parallel, semi-abrupt retouch. The flake does not appear to be a formal tool form. It is 36mm long, 17.3mm wide and 4.5mm thick. 1.88g.

Object type: RETOUCHED FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A probable flint retouched flake of probable Neolithic date, circa 4000 - 2300 BC. It is made from a secondary flake and retains c.10% cortex. The dorsal face exhibits 2 large negative flake scars from previous flake removal, as well as some crude short, parallel, abrupt retouch along its dorsal end and along one mesal side. The proximal end has a striking platform, and a bulb of percussion is present on the ventral face. The flint is grey in colour with white-grey inclusions.
It measures 50.84mm in length, 56.56mm in width, 17.04mm in thickness and weighs 59.8g

Object type: RETOUCHED FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A retouched flake of probable late Neolithic date, circa 2700 - 2200 BC. The flake is sub-triangular and asymmetrical. It has short, sub-parallel, semi-abrupt retouch to both edges. There is a small amount of cortex remaining on the right mesal, so the flake is a secondary flake. There is a prominent bulb of percussion with ripples emanating from it. There is some invasive flaking to the ventral face. The flake is pale grey/brown in colour with a few paler inclusions.
Length 40.5mm, width 25.2mm and thickness 7.3mm. Weight 5.8gm.

Object type: POINT
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint projectile point dating from the Neolithic period, about 3500 - 2100 BC. It is triangular in plan, the distal end being a deliberate break across the flake. It is also triangular in section with a central dorsal ridge. Both sides and the proximal point are retouched with irregular abrupt removals. It is unlikely that this is an arrowhead but as the break is deliberate it was probably hafted at the broken end and was used as some form of projectile. It is 26.8mm long, 21.8mm wide and 5.6mm thick. It weighs 3.33gm. The flint is mottled tan and grey.

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete knapped lithic implement of late Neolithic to early Bronze Age date, circa 2700BC- 1600BC. The implement is a plano-convex knife formed from a tertiary flake which is D-shaped in plan and section though most of its length is now missing due to a transverse break. The ventral surface is smooth with a visible bulb of percussion and the dorsal surface is covered with short, low angle, scaled retouch.
The flint is a mid-grey colour. The implement is 21.9mm long, 16.6mm wide, 6.7mm thick and weighs 2.5g.

Broken lithic Implement, of light grey/brown material.
The flint flake has been reworked as an 'end and side scraper' or possibly a leaf shaped arrowhead.
Retouching is subparallel and covering. Both faces of the flake have been worked in the same fashion, with removals across the entire surface.
