Black flint debitage fragment. A small irregular chunk with parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side. A dense white patina has accumulated across all surfaces, removed by later damage to expose the underlying tint of the flint. The patina may suggest the object has endured prolonged exposure to a calcareous environment. As the find-spot is not on chalk it may have been imported. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC

County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Possible flint piercer/arrowhead, of prehistoric dates. Due to its shape, and some retouching, it was likely earmarked to be a tool, but discarded pre-usage. The dark colour of the flint, and its workmanship suggest that it is likely of Neolithic origin. The flint is 90% of a white cloudy patina, and 10% of its surfaces showed signs of iron staining.
This is a common occurence on the Land's End peninsula, where we regularly find flint scatters, representing extremely long periods of occupation.
Dimensions: Length, 56.21mm, width (max), 25.39mm, thickness, 5.85mm. Weight: 10g.

It looks to be a flint implement, but due to some retouching, may possibly have been used as a scraper. The dark colour of the flint, and its workmanship suggest that it is likely of Neolithic origin. You can see the cracking ripples on its ventral surface, as well as two patches of cortex, which suggests that it was originally a tertiary flake. It has a dark grey-black patina on 90% of its surface, and the remaining 10% cortex is of a mid white-brown colour.
Dimensions: Longest length(from end to end), 34mm. Longest width (from side to side), 22mm.

The object is worked from a tertiary flake of light grey flint with occasional medium grey patches. The flake is sub-triangular in plan and sub-triangular to trapezoidal in cross section. At least four negative removal scars are present on the dorsal face, some running in a linear fashion parallel to each other. The ventral face is almost perfectly flat. The longest side of the triangle has possible retouch, suggesting it may have been used as a scraping …

Flint debitage; as it is not a tool, it is difficult to securely date this object. However, flint from Beer Head in Devon is typically of a dark grey/black hue, much like this flake, and does not seem to have been imported into Cornwall until the Neolithic period. As such, this flint flake, if indeed Beer Flint, is likely to date to the Neolithic to Bronze Age periods.
It was found in moderate proximity to Carn Kenidjack; a hill covered in prehistoric megaliths, including Tregeseal Stone Circle.

A complete flint piece of Debitage of Neolithic to Bronze Age date (3450-800 BC). The object is sub-triangular in plan and plano-convex in section. The dorsal surface has two predominant negative scars. The proximal end has been blunted while the distal end tapers to a point. The left- and right-hand edges have semi-abrupt retouch. The ventral surface is slightly convex. The lithic retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake.
Length: 36.34mm, Width: 32.35mm, Thickness: 10.44mm, Weight: 10.5g
The flint is cream and light grey in colour with orange inclusions throughout.
