Record ID: LIN-160773
Object type: HANDAXE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published Find published
A worn, rolled and damaged lithic implement, identified as a Palaeolithic flint axe by the finder. The condition of the object, along with the fact that it is not truly bifacial, makes this identification questionable. The axe is roughly oval is plan and in cross-section, with flakes taken off both dorsal and ventral surfaces. There is some damage around the edge exposing a fresh mid-grey coloured flint. The surface has a reddish-brown patina.

Complete prehistoric flint implement, possibly a large scraper. Date unknown. Length 101mm, width 112mm and 27mm thick. Weight 288g. The scraper is sub-triangular in plan and has been produced on a naturally fractured “lump”. The ventral surface is probably a natural fracture and the lump has been utilised and formed into a large scraper. The dorsal surface is mainly occupied by cortex which is “pitted”. The pitting is probably the result of the implement having been used as a hammer. All three edges have been retouched and the removals are abrupt/crossed abrupt, short and sca…

Object type: HANDAXE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published Find published
A lithic implement, possibly representing the top of a flint axe. The axe is small, triangular in plan and also in cross-section. The axe is well worn and all of the edges are rounded. The flint is a mottled light brown-yellow colour. There is cortex or re-cortication at the butt end. There is a suggestion that this is lower or middle Palaeolithic, but this identification must only be taken with great caution.

NMGWPA 2002.92.1 (EF2272) – Flint pebble with central void. A cortical flint pebble of interesting form. The central hole, while appearing man made has a natural cortical skin, suggesting it is a geological phenomenon. The ‘point’ of the object exhibits a number of impact fractures, but there is no evidence of systematic working, ruling out the object as a Prehistoric tool (awl or knife). The flint shows evidence of water rolling. The object was found in Llanelli, Carmarthenshire, and was likely to have been picked up on or near the coast. There are concentrations of beach peb…
