Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Flint debitage. A tiny narrow flake with long narrow parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a flat to slightly concave ventral surface. One end bears a narrow and delicate point. A dense creamy patina suggest the object has subsequently endured prolonged exposure to a calcareous environment. Suggested date: Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC Length: 21.1mm, Width: 6.8mm, Thickness: 3.5mm, Weight: 0.32gms

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Flint scraper. A small irregular flake with broad and narrow parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side, and with a bulbar ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch executed from the ventral aspect forms a curving lightly hollowed edge on one side, with similar treatment of a shorter adjacent side. A dense creamy patina suggest the object has subsequently endured prolonged exposure to a calcareous environment, while light orange spotting may hint at its subsequent incorporation into gravels. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC Length: 26.9mm, Width: 24.5mm, Thickness: 7mm, Weight:…
