Complete flint thumbnail scraper made from a secondary flake. The object survives in good condition with only a small amount of plough damage to all edges. Cortex covers the flat proximal end. The dorsal face has four flaking scars and the left, right and distal edges show semi-abrupt retouch. The removals are long and sub-parallel. The ventral face is smooth but uneven with no obvious bulb of percussion. The flint is mid-grey in colour and of poor quality. However, the ventral face has a slightly milky patina suggesting that the object may be an example of later reworking following e…

Small flint thumb nail scraper made from a secondary flake, probably dating from the Neolithic to early Bronze Age. The scraper has a small butt, with diffuse bulb and very discreet ripples, suggesting that a small, soft hammer was used. The ventral face is concave.

Thumb nail scraper, made from a secondary flake, of probable Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date. The butt appears to have snapped off following deposition leaving a sharp break. However, very discreet ripples suggest that a soft hammer was probably used. The dorsal face has brown, matt, pebble cortex remaining on the right-hand side. In the centre and to the left of the dorsal face are two long, thin flaking scars. Above this, at the distal end, is semi-abrupt, long, scaled retouch.

Sub-triangular in shape, the object does look rather like a crude or damaged Neolithic arrow-head.

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint end scraper of probable Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. The scraper has been made from a secondary flake (with a small area of cortex remaining). At the proximal end is the striking platform and below this on the ventral surface is the bulb of percussion. Faint ripples radiate down the ventral surface. On the dorsal surface there are a number of flaking scars. The distal end has been abruptly and fairly crudely retouched. Dimensions: 45.6mm by 40.4mm by 8.8mm Weight: 20.9g

Record ID: SOM-6A5C75
Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A probable crude flint end scraper of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. The scraper has been made from a secondary flake (with a small area of cortex remaining). At the proximal end is the striking platform and below this on the ventral surface is the bulb of percussion. Faint ripples radiate down the ventral surface. On the dorsal surface there are a number of flaking scars. The distal end appears to have been crudely retouched, although some use of the natural cortex has also been made. Dimensions: 46.3 by 32.3mm by 12.2mm Weight: 20.1g
