Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Leicestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Prehistoric flint discoidal scraper. Formed on a d-shaped tertiary flake of light-brown flint, with semi-abrupt parallel retouch all around the curved edge, and a striking platform at the proximal edge, with two subcircular areas of surface loss emanating from it on the dorsal face. There is a (probably recent) break along the right side (when viewed with the dorsal face uppermost and the striking platform at the top) which has produced a straight edge between 3 and 5 o'clock. The ventral face is convex with a prominent bulb of percussion. The scraper is 38.4mm long, 39.8mm …

A flint implement, possibly a Mesolithic scraper. It consists of a sub triangular lump of opaque grey flint with a pale orange brown patina. It may be a natural flake. On the ventral side a central flake has been removed which shows a point of percussion and the suggestion of two faint concentric ripples.Whichever way up the implement is held, between thumb and forefinger, the thumb naturally fits the depression thus formed. The two long edges both show evidence of retouching. In each case the area of retouching is on the part of the edge exposed when the flake is held between thumb a…

Record ID: PUBLIC-5FE8F5
Object type: CORE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Leicestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Prehistoric core, a worked nodule of black/brown flint, with some original cortex remaining. The nodule is irregularly shaped and shows evidence of having been worked from different angles at widely spaced intervals, as some of the worked facets have recorticated and some haven't. Some of the removals are of narrow bladelets and are probably Mesolithic in date, but it has probably been reworked in the Neolithic, or possibly the Bronze age. Maximum length 91.5mm, width 63.5mm, thickness 41.0mm; mass 234g.
