Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete knapped and polished flint axehead dating to the Neolithic period, c. 4000-2500 BC. The butt and midsection are missing in an oblique patinated break, with only the lower body and cutting edge preserved extant. Deep negative flaking on both sides of the axe close to this break suggests this may have resulted from use. Demonstrating a rectangular section and slightly expanding flat sides, the axe has been manufactured on a piece of greyish flint which has now in places patinated to an off-white mottled with blue. Considerable iron staining on both faces marks the location…

An incomplete polished flint axehead dating to the Neolithic period, c. 4000-2500 BC. It survives relatively intact despite some damage to the cutting edge and extensive breakage to the butt, the latter possibly relating to hafting and subsequent use. In form, it demonstrates characteristic gently expanding sides with a broadly lenticular section, that transition into a convex cutting edge. Manufactured on a fine-grained piece of mottled light greyish flint, the surfaces of the axe are completely smooth and polished-with all removal scars and primary reduction negatives obliterated. L…

County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete struck flint flake probaby dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, c. 4000-750 BC. It is a secondary piece, with c. 20% cortex covering its distal end and its proximal end broken away in old damage. It is patinated a thick bluey-white colour, with some iron staning visible on both its dorsal and ventral faces. There is a single arrise on its dorsal face. Edge damage is visible on both lateral edges. Preserved in fairly worn condition, it survives to a length of 38.81mm, 19.84mm wide at its midpoint, and 5.29mm thick at its midpoint. It weighs 4.77g.

Record ID: SF-807288
Object type: HAMMERSTONE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete flint hammerstone probably dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, c. 4000-750 BC. It consists a partly cortified sub-spherical lump of flint, with heavy abrasion, signs of crushing and batter marks covering most if its surfaces. It measures c. 74.04mm in diameter, and weighs 643g. Hard hammerstones of this size and weight would likely have been utilised for the primary stages of knapping, 'opening' the nodule and removing initial flakes.
