Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Dark grey flint debitage fragment. A small chip, broken at either end, with narrow parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side, and with a flat ventral surface. Presented along with a possible transverse arrowhead [a late Neolithic object type] in similar material. However, the pattern of flake removal here might rather point to a later Mesolithic date. One long side bears fine serrations, which are more readily felt than observed. The lack of patina may hint at its subsequent inclusion in a sealed context. Suggested date: Unknown, Late Mesolithic to Late Neolithic, 7000-2350 BC

County: North Lincolnshire

Pale grey flint debitage. Seven small chips, all probably waste from flint knapping using hard hammer with narrow or parallel flakes struck from their dorsal sides and with flat, concave or undulating ventral surfaces, some with bulbs. A pale milky patina on all but one chips may suggest they were subsequently exposed for a limited period to a calcareous environment; not, however, to the more marked degree typical of most other flint reported from the vicinity. Suggested date: Unknown, Late Mesolithic to Neolithic, 7000-2350 BC Combined Weight: 8.96gms

Flint possible debitage. Four small irregular flakes, all with flakes struck from their dorsal sides; three retains elements of a bulbar ventral surface while the fourth and longest has a tiny bulb at one end of a concave ventral surface. A dense creamy patina suggests all have endured prolonged exposure to a calcareous environment after their deposition. The finder kindly notes the absence of naturally occurring flint in the vicinity, which has encouraged the consideration of these pieces. Suggested date: Unknown, Late Mesolithic to Neolithic, 7000-2350 BC Combined Weight: 25.76gms

Grey flint with cortex in two out of three cases; possible debitage. Three small thick flakes, all with indications of flakes having been struck from their dorsal surfaces. The largest has a concave ventral surface, the others have bulbar ventral surfaces. The development of a creamy patina over all struck surfaces indicates the objects have endured a period of exposure to a calcareous environment. Suggested date: Unknown, Late Mesolithic to Neolithic, 7000-2350BC. Combined Weight: 12.02gms

Grey flint Possible debitage; the finder asserts flint does not naturally occur in the area of findspot. The colour and the fractured appearance of one end may alternatively hint that this flint has been fractured by heating. Suggested date: Unknown, Neolithic to Bronze Age, 3500-800 BC. Length: 13.6mm, Width: 12.9mm, Thickness: 6.9mm, Weight: 1.47gms.

Brittle grey cloudy flint of mediocre quality Possible debitage. Irregular flint with fracture surfaces on all sides; these include one long scar which may indicate the hard hammer removal of a long flake; however, the other sides are struck and broken irregularly, and the sharp arises between these impact scars are so sharp as to suggest a recent origin through plough strike. Suggested date: Unknown, Neolithic to Modern, 3500BC-2000AD. Length: 53mm, Weight: 23.32gms.
