County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Published
Complete flint leaf arrowhead dating within the period from the Early Neolithic to the Early Bronze Age (c. 4000 - 1600 BC). The arrowhead is pear-shaped in form with shape angles at the tip and widest points. It is bifacially worked with invasive, scaled, low-angle retouch on the dorsal face and minimal edge retouch on the ventral face. The flint is mottled grey and white in colour. The length of the arrowhead is 21.95mm, it is 16.86mm in width and 3.06mm in thickness. It weighs 0.90g. Similar examples on the database include: BH-925A72, SWYOR-7857C8 and SWYOR-09D55A.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Published
A complete knapped lithic implement of Neolithic date, circa 4000 - 2300 BC. The implement is a thumbnail scraper, designed to be held between the thumb and forefinger, formed from a tertiary flake which is D-shaped in plan and section. The ventral surface is smooth with visible ripples of percussion suggesting the hard hammer technique was used in its removal. The dorsal surface displays semi-abrupt, long, sub-parallel retouch around the distal edge and both sides. The flint is a mid-grey colour. The implement is 28.5mm long, 25.8mm wide, 9.5mm thick and weighs 7g. Scrapers are…

Object type: KNIFE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Published
A complete knapped lithic implement of Neolithic date (circa 4000-2350BC). The implement is most likely a knife, although could be a small Neolithic hand-axe shaped implement known as an 'Ovate' dating to the Late Neolithic (3000-2350BC). However, the implement is not bifacially worked to the extent expected of an Ovate. The implement appears to have been knapped from a primary flake, from which secondary and tertiary flakes have been removed from the ventral surface. The Dorsal face has been worked to remove cortex on the left medial edge, leaving a substantial amount on the right…
