A serrated flint implement, likely of Early Neolithic date, c. 4000 - 3300 BC. Description: The object is a serrated blade, broadly rectangular in plan and triangular in section. The ventral face has a clear striking platform and parallel blade removal down its surface. Along the right-side edge of the ventral face is short stepped low-angle retouch, possibly achieved using a soft hammer. The dorsal face is smooth with only conchoidal rippling. The object is opaque and patinated blue and grey, possibly an indication of being in alluvial deposits. Measurements…

A complete knapped lithic implement of early Neolithic date, c. 4000 - 3500 BC. The object is a serrated blade or saw which is broadly rectangular in plan and triangular in section. The ventral surface is smooth with subtle ripples of percussion. One edge of the dorsal surface has been finely and steeply retouched to create a saw tooth serrated edge along the entire length. The other edge features very limited short, scaled, low angle retouch from the ventral face. The top of the implement features a horizontal break. The flint is a dark orange&…

Dark grey- brown flint serrated implement. A thin sub-ovoid flake with narrow and broad parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a bulb at one end of a slightly concave ventral surface. Very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows the longest edge. Both ends are also lightly battered. This coastal context has produced a number of finely worked early tools in dark, often brownish, varieties of non-local flint. Suggested date: Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC. Length: 44.0mm, Width: 26.5mm, Thickness: 6.6mm, Weight: 8.59gms.

Chocolate brown flint of good quality, serrated implement fragment. A flake with three long parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a slightly concave ventral surface. Very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows the longest straight edge, forming serrations so fine they are more readily felt than observed. What remains of the opposite long edge bears very short abrupt retouch executed from the ventral aspect, forming a further cutting edge. One end of the tool is broken obliquely, with the loss of part of this edge. Suggested date: Late Mesolithic, 7…

Grey flint with cortex serrated implement. Flake with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a flat ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows one straight edge; one end of this cutting edge may be lost to a break incurred in antiquity. The opposite edge bears a longer extent of apparent retouch, though much of this appears to arise from fortuitous impacts along that edge. A milky patina indicates the object was exposed to a calcareous environment after its deposition. Suggested date: Early Neolithic, 4000-3500 BC. Length: 51mm, Width: …

Black flint with cortex spot, possibly collected from the East Coast, serrated implement. Long curved flake with long parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a concave rippled ventral surface. Very short abrupt retouch, more easily felt than observed, and executed from the dorsal aspect, follows the longest edge, and is perhaps supplemented by damage along the same edge producing tiny conchoidal scars. Suggested date: Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC. Length: 52.7mm, Width: 13.8mm, Thickness: 7.3mm, Weight: 5.99gms
