Record ID: SUR-D615CB
Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A curved flint blade of probable Bronze Age date, 53.8mm in length and struck from a secondary flake of grey flint. The distal end has been worked into a triangular point with short semi-abrupt retouch on both sides. The flake has cortex on both faces at the proximal end suggesting that it derived from a nodule with a thick cortical layer.

Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete flint barbed and tanged arrowhead dating to the early Bronze Age or Beaker Period (c. 2400-1500 BC).
This arrowhead has been knapped from a light grey-white piece of flint and there is no cortex remaining. It is broadly sub-triangular in plan with sharp point and is lentoid in cross section. It is broadly symmetrical in shape, with two notches chipped into the base of the flint to separate the barbs and the tang, both barbs are still intact. Both the long sides of the arrowhead have been precisely retouched to create sharp edges. The obje…

County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint retouched flake of uncertain date, probably late Bronze Age to early Iron Age 1000 BC - AD 0. It is formed on a tertiary flake of partially patinated tan flint which is perhaps a natural flake since it does not have an obvious bulb of percussion or striking platform. The flake is ovoid, narrower at one end. Treating the narrower end as the distal end, there is an area of short, sub-parallel, abrupt retouch at the distal end of the right side. The flake is 34.7mm long, 25mm wide and 7.3mm thick. 7.7g.
