Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint scraper of probable Bronze Age date, circa 2700 - 1600 BC. The flint has no cortex remaining and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flake is sub-ovate in plan with a sub-rectangular section. The dorsal face has four flakes removed in a parallel pattern. The ventral face is smooth with a low bulb of percussion. There is short, sub-parallel, abrupt retouch to the right mesal to produce a thumb scaper. The flake is pale grey in colour with pale inclusions. Length 25.2mm, width 21.1mm and thickness 10.1mm. Weight 7.3gm.

A flint scaper of probable Mesolithic date, circa 9000 - 3450 BC. The flint has some cortex remaining on the left mesal and is therefore a secondary flint. The scraper is formed from an irregular rectangular shaped flint, wider at the proximal end, with a plano-convex section. The flint is pale brown in colour. Both sides of the flake are smooth and there is a distinct bulb of percussion on the ventral side and three small chips on the dorsal side. There is short, semi-abrupt, sub-parallel retouch to the proximal end to form an end scraper.

A complete knapped lithic implement of broad Mesolithic to Neolithic date, c.7,000 - 2350BC. The implement is a piece of debitage, or waste material, produced during the knapping process. It is a tertiary flake which is sub-ovate in plan and trapezoidal in section. Prominent ripples of percussion remain on the ventral surface, probably produced by the hard hammer technique. The dorsal surface is irregular with previous removals though no evident retouch.
The flint is a patch black and mid-brown colour. The implement is 43.9mm long, 27.5mm wide, 6.5mm thick and weighs 6.7g.

A complete knapped lithic implement of broad Mesolithic to Neolithic date, c.7,000 - 2350BC. The implement is a piece of debitage, or waste material, produced during the knapping process. It is a tertiary flake which is sub-triangular in plan and trapezoidal in section. A prominent bulb of percussion remains on the ventral surface from which ripples of percussion radiate, probably produced by the hard hammer technique. The dorsal surface is irregular with numerous previous removals though no evident retouch.

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 secondary flake which is ovate in plan and D-shaped in section. The ventral surface is smooth with a visible bulbar scar and bulb of percussion. The dorsal surface retains approximately 50% cortex along the right side. The left side has been extensively worked and displays semi-abrupt, invasive, scaled retouch along the edge

Object type: BLADE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete knapped lithic implement of Neolithic date, circa 4000 - 2300 BC. The implement is a blade formed from a tertiary flake which is rectangular in plan with a D-shaped section. As its length is more than twice the width and the sides are more or less parallel, it is identifiable as a blade. A bulb of percussion remains along with radiating ripples. Semi-abrupt, short, parallel retouch is present along the left edge.
The flint is a mid-grey colour. The implement is 57.8mm long, 25.5mm wide, 8.5mm thick and weighs 12.8g.
Broad blades such as this are common in the early Me…
