Prehistoric flint retouched and notched flake, probably of Neolithic date The implement is made on yellow-brown cortical flint and is unpatinated. The flake is retouched along the distal end, with comparatively steep retouch, suggesting a scraper edge. The flake has also been notched on one side of the striking platform. Length - 37.0mm, width - 26.2mm, thickness - 9.0mm, weight - 6.6g

Prehistoric retouched flint, possibly a scraper The tool is made on the proximal end of a broken blade or flake. The end has been modified more than would be expected for core preparation, although the retouch is less steep than might be expected on a scraper. One side displays evidence of utilisation. The implement is made on pale grey, unpatinated flint.

A flint round scraper made from a tertiary flake. Round scrapers are ubiquitous throughout prehistory and are therefore very difficult to date to any particular period. The proximal end of the original flake is flat and smooth. The ventral face of the flake features a bulbal scar and a low blub of percussion. The dorsal face is rough and irregular, the result of other flakes having been removed. The right edge, the distal edge and much of the left edge have been retouched to form the scraper. The retouch can be described as short, semi abrupt and scaled. The original flake has t…

A round scraper made from a tertiary flake. Round scrapers are ubiquitous throughout prehistory and are therefore very difficult to date to any particular period. Owing to the roundness of this object and the extent of retouch, many of the features which are commonly mentioned when describing a flint are difficult to determine. The presumed ventral face retains a central spine of the original surface. Around the edges of this face a series of sizeable flakes have been removed. These can be described as semi-abrupt invasive sub-parallel removals. As a result there is no evidence …
