Object type: BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Kent
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A complete flint barbed and tanged arrowhead of probably early Bronze Age date. Description: Made from a mid grey-brown flint. The arrowhead is triangular with a slightly squared tang and slightly curved barbs (one is squared off, possibly from a break), the other rounded at the end. Both faces have covering scaled low angle retouch.  Dimensions: length 29.07mm, width 21.35, thickness 3.94mm, weight 1.96g Notes: Similar flint barb and tanged arrowheads are associated with the Beaker phase of the Late / final Neolithic and Early Bronze Age c. 2500 BC-1500 BC.

A coarse flint scraper of uncertain date, likely Late Bronze age to Iron Age in date (c. 1200-1 BC). Description: The scraper is very roughly tirangular but irregular and dog-legs in cross section. It is formed from a secondary flake, with a obscured striking platform at the proximal end. The conchoidal rippling is very distinct indicating its production though hard hammer technology, this is particularly noticeable around the heavily fractured bulb of percussion. It has a round scraping edge along one the pointed end formed by short abrupt scaled retouch. The flint is of poor qua…

A small sub-rectangular flint knife with borer of probable Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age date, c.1000-0 BC. Description: The knife is formed of a sub-rectangular secondary flint flake, which has been worked mainly on the right hand side of the ventral face.

A small flint Levalloisian core of likely early Bronze Age date c. 2200-1000 BC. Description: The core is irregularly shaped with two striking platforms at right angles. The core has distinctive 'tortoise shell' flaking typical of Levalloisian production technique, however it is far smaller than the tools being produced during the Middle-Palaeolithic and likely relates to the use of the technique during the early Bronze Age. It seems probable due to the size of the core that it may have been produce a thumb nail scraper or other equally small tool. The core is light blue-grey mottl…

A probable later Bronze Age / early Iron age denticulate, c.1000-0BC. Description: The denticulate is irregularly shaped and formed from a utilised secondary flake, or early date to the final tool. The flake's later reuse is clear by the fact the majority of the flint surface is heavily patinated, while retouch and some flaking has removed the patination. The main shaping flaking of the flint is very subtle and produced by soft hammer technology. The bulb of percussion has been removed and the initial conchoidal fracturing is unclear. The retouch covers 3 sides and is short steep a…
