Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Bradford
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Worked flint probably a Bronze Age 2150 - 800BC thumbnail scaper worked from close to the core which is unusual. The flint is caramel in colour which is agin unusual for worked flint but maybe explained by a lack of source material in the area hence the necessity of utilising every part of an imported material. The scraper reveals 3 blade scars from the shaping of the tool. There is also minor damage possibly from being knicked by early ploughing in the Iron Age or Medieval period. The length is 25mm and the thickness is 22mm.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete flint microlith of probable Mesolithic date (8300-3500 BC). The lithic is sub-spatulate in profile. The dorsal surface is convex with six predominant negative scars and corresponding arrises. The dorsal surface is smooth with a small spur of projecting flint situated at the distal end. The lithic appears to have been burnt, as a result the surface has become cracked and some of the edges are missing or crumbling. The flint is a blue-ish cream in colour.
