Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A broadly leaf-shaped flint flake formed from a grey/blue flint with thick outer calcification. The flake has not been retouched and shows scars from previous removals on the dorsal surface only. The bulb of percussion is retained. A small hinge fracture can be seen on the lower left lateral of the dorsal side. General prehistoric date but probably Neolithic - Bronze Age, c. 4000-1400 BC.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Two flint debitage fragments, waste flakes from flint tool production. Both flakes are small and bladelet-like in form. The orange coloured flake retains the platform and bulb of percussion and has evidence of previous removals on its dorsal surface. The second flake, also a tertiary removal, is grey in colour and has evidence of previous removals on its dorsal side, but does not retain the platform or bulb and has suffered post-depositional damage. Although hard to date accurately, these flakes are likely to date from the Mesolithic to Neolithic period, c. 8000-2400 BC.

A flint 'plunging blade' from a double platformed core, therefore of Mesolithic or Neolithic date (c. 8000-2400 BC). There is no retouch and the overall form of the blade is uneven. The flint is heavily patinated to an off-white colour, although a small area of damage reveals a light grey core.

Two brokens flakes from flint working debris (debitage). The first is the distal end of a flake from a multi-platformed core, with the proximal end now broken and missing. This tertiary flake is a dark grey-brown in colour. The second piece is also a broken distal fragment of a flake, this time a secondary flake retaining c. 20% cortex along the right edge. This flint is a dark brown colour with creamy cortex. Both pieces are prehistoric in date with the first flake being of probable Neolithic date while the second cannot be dated more closely than Neolithic to Early Bronze Age. They …

A broken fragment of a flake from flint working debris (debitage). The flake is broken at either end, so the middle part survives while the distal and proximal ends are missing. The flint is a mottled grey in colour and shows evidence of previous flake removals on its dorsal surface. This flake is later prehistoric in date but cannot be dated closer than Neolithic to Early Bonze Age.

Three pieces of flint working debitage, or 'flakes' of later prehistoric date. Fragment no.1 is broadly triangular in plan and retains c.15% cortex on one edge. The flake has a shallow bulb and has sharp and jagged edges. It is a mottled grey-blue in colour with lighter, almost milky outer surface. Fragment no. 2 is a complete flake retaining the bulb and part of the platform. There is a small area (c.15%) of cortex on one side of the distal dorsal surface with a hinge fracture at the base. This flint is a light brown in colour and semi-translucent. The third fragment is a thick, amor…

Three small pieces flint working debitage, or 'chips', two of which are c.1cm in length. The larger fragment (no.1) retains under 10% cortex on one edge and has the bulb of percussion evident. It is a dark mottled grey in colour. The second piece (no. 2) retains no cortext or bulb and is broken at its distal end. This flint is grey in colour with a milky white outer surface. The third piece (no. 3) is a small chip with no bulb but lines of percussions on its dorsal surface. It has a point at the proximal end but this is just a result of the fracturing and not intentional. The flint is…

County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Published
A collection of 89 flint debitage pieces of varying size, shape and colour, dating from the Mesolithic to Neolithic period (c. 10,000 - 2350 BC). The collection consists of flakes and blade-like pieces and chunks, mostly undiagnostic but considering the rest of the assemblage probably of Mesolithic or Neolithic date. Most of the pieces are made on a blue-grey flint, some with white or grey patina. Cortex survives on about 10% of the pieces. These objects are part of a larger collection from what appears to be a multiphase site.

County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Published
A collection debitage consisting of 24 bladelets dating to the Mesolithic period (10,000-4001 BC). They are in varying sizes and varying stages of preperation. They are broadly rectangular in plan with a trapezoidal cross section., although the less-fine examples have a triangular cross section. All of the bladelets are on a mottled blue-grey flint many with a white patina forming. Seceral examples are in the early stage of preperation, retaining a small area of cortex. The pieces vary in soze from 33.5mm long x 14.4mm wide down to 16.4mm long x 7.2mm wide.

A collection of 48 flint debitage pieces (bladelet material) of varying size, shape and colour, dating from the Mesolithic to early Neolithic period (c. 10,000 - 3501 BC). The collection consists of mainly blade or bladelet shaped pieces and flakes with a few broken blades and small chips. Most of the bladelets have a triangular cross section. None are reworked. The flint material is generally a blue-grey with white or grey patina. Cortex survives on about 25% of the pieces. These objects are part of a larger collection from what appears to be a multiphase site.

Two pieces of flint tool manufacturing waste (debitage), made from a semi-translucent orange-brown flint. Both flakes show flake removal scars on their dorsal surfaces, and neither appear to have any retouch. Undiagnostic pieces like these are very hard to date, however they are likely to date from around the Neolithic period.
