Object type: WASTE
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A knapped flint waste flake dating to the Bronze Age, c. 2150-800 BC. The flake has a very large bulb of percussion and ripples on the ventral face; the dorsal face has three blade removals. There is a small area of possible retouch visible on the dorsal face, but the condition of the cherty flint makes the evaluation of this difficult and the extent of the possible retouch suggests that this flake was not used as a tool. It measures 59.5 mm long, 40.2 mm wide, 10.4 mm thick and weighs 25.61 grams.

Flint thumb nail scraper, made from a secondary flake, of probable Early Bronze Age date. Diffuse ripples and a wide butt suggest that a large, soft hammer was probably used. The majority of the dorsal face is covered with brown, chalky, cortex. The distal end shows semi-abrupt, long, parallel retouch. This retouch continues along the left edge, becoming shorter and abrupt. The flint is dark grey-brown in colour, with milky, blotched patination.

A flint thumbnail scraper probably dating from the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age period, about 2400 BC - 2200 BC. It is formed on a secodary flake of translucent dark brown flint with cortex on the dorsal face. The flake is semi-circular in plan and D shaped in cross section. The proximal end is well patinated, as is the unworked part of the dorsal face, so it is possible the flint was re-used to form the thumbnail scraper. The sides and distal end have invasive, sub-parallel, semi-abrupt retouch. The scraper is 18.5mm long, 23.3mm wide and 12mm thick. 5.42g.
