Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Pale semi-translucent honey-coloured flint debitage. Two small thin flakes [of length 35.3mm and 28.4mm], each with long narrow parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a flat rippled ventral surface and a tiny bulb at one end. A draft of long angled scalar retouch executed from the dorsal aspect appears on the larger flake, while the smaller may bear very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect at one end.

Opaque pale grey flint possible core fragment. A thin sub-rectangular flake with broad and narrow long flakes removed by unidirectional working from a flat platform. Both the long edges may be serrated, though this is more easily felt than observed; along one long side the putative serration may be accompanied by very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect. The ventral surface is flat. If not a core, this might alternatively be a plano-convex knife, perhaps unfinished.

Grey-brown mottled flint backed blade. A thick D-shaped flake with a single large flake trimmed from its dorsal side by hard hammer strike and with part of a bulb at one end of its ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows the longer curving edge. The butt enabling pressure to be brought to bear may have been formed by trimming or loss of part of a slightly larger flake, as implied by the incomplete bulb; it is now attractively polished by use-wear. A flake may also have been detached by hard hammer strike delivered from the ventral aspect to improve…

Grey-brown flint with cortex, debitage. An irregular flake from the outer surface of a nodule with a bulbar ventral surface. Possibly formed by frost action in ‘pot lid’ form, but very roughly trimmed with a hard hammer and bearing at least two drafts of angled scalar retouch executed from the dorsal aspect. Probably an ephemeral tool knocked out for a single passing use. Suggested date: Bronze Age, 2350-800 BC. Length: 37.6mm, Width: 37.7mm, Thickness: 7.3mm, Weight: 11.65gms

Grey flint with off-white patch near its tip, probable fabricator fragment. A thick pointed flake of plano-convex section with large flakes initially trimmed from its dorsal side and a flat ventral surface. Invasive angled scalar retouch executed from the dorsal aspect is carried over most of the surface; this was perhaps interrupted by removal of a further flake from the butt end of the tool. Though this need not have interfered with its function, it does not bear wear suggesting it to be the result of a deliberate modification. Suggested date: Early Bronze Age, 2350-1600 BC Length: …

Grey flint debitage.

The smallest flake also bears invasive angled scalar retouch and might be a fragment lost from a larger blade. The lack of patina might suggest these objects to have been immediately incorporated into a sealed context. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC. Combined Weight: 9.29gms

A re-formed possibly marine-derived cortex has been retained along one long side. A single thin spall from thew opposite long edge appears to have created a sharp if ephemeral cutting edge. Probably made for a single task as there is scant evidence of use wear. Suggested date: Early Neolithic, 4000-3500 BC Length: 27.8m…

Grey flint with cortex, core fragment. Probably part of a pyramidal core, with narrow parallel flakes removed by unidirectional working from a flat platform; one or two sides appear to have parted from the object during this activity. The penultimate episode seems to have been the removal of another thin narrow flake from the left [as illustrated] side of the striking platform. The lack of subsequent patination might suggest this object to have then been incorporated into a sealed deposit. Suggested date: possibly Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC.

Pale grey flint possible debitage. A thin flake with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and a bulb at the narrow end of its ventral side. A dense creamy patina then developed over struck surfaces, suggesting a period of exposure to a calcareous environment. A further large flake was subsequently detached from the ventral side of the flake using the same striking platform as had figured in the initial working. A serrated appearance along the longest edge of the flake may, however, be misleading as it appears to arise from a series of fortuitously occurring edge-on chips. Suggested…

Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: North Lincolnshire

Pale grey flint debitage. Three small narrow flakes, all with narrow parallel flakes struck from their dorsal sides and with flat ventral surfaces. White patina across all struck surfaces suggests they have subsequently endured a period of exposure to a calcareous environment. Suggested date: possibly Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC Combined Weight: 4.88gms

Flint possible debitage. An irregular flake with an unevenly battered dorsal side and a bulb at one end of its ventral surface. A subsequent episode entailed the formation of a narrow rippled scar by invasive angled scalar retouch executed from the ventral aspect. A dense white patina across all struck surfaces suggests they have subsequently endured exposure to a calcareous environment. Were this environment not to occur locally, it might hint that they had been imported together with chalk brought to marl fields or for road construction. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC Lengt…

Dark grey flint debitage. A tiny chunk with parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and  with a slightly undulating ventral surface. A slight patina across struck surfaces may suggest a brief subsequent exposure to a calcareous environment, and is interrupted by adventitious chipping. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC Length: 17.5mm, Width: 11mm, Thickness: 6.1mm, Weight: 1.45gms

Pale grey and banded flint possible point. A trapezoid chunk with pointed end with a positive hinge fracture conferring a smooth surface to the longest edge which terminates in a sharp point. Short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows a short angled edge extending from the point. The ventral surface is flat, though a bulbar surface on the side opposite the hinge fracture is also smooth and with an adjacent hollow affords a thumb rest. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC Length: 32.2mm, Width: 18.6mm, Thickness: 10.9mm, Weight: 6.25gms

Pale grey flint with cortex spot, probably from the Wolds, possible debitage. Four small flakes or chips of flint which was probably imported from the Wolds to this area. The largest chip has scars from multangular working; the two others of middling size are of uncertain status, and the smallest bears scars from the removal of at least three tiny chips and a flat ventral surface. Suggested date: possibly Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC. Combined Weight: 16.58gms
