Four fragments of flint debitage. The group consists of three smaller pieces of mid-grey flint and one large flake. The flake is secondary with a large area of cortex remaining on the dorsal face and a pronounced buld of percussion on the ventral face. The flake is possibly burnt, but could just be heavily patinated. It bears no sign of secondary retouch and is a core trimming flake. The three smaller pieces are waste/debitage flakes, one severely broken with some possible edge use, the other two smaller flakes are whole flakes, one patinated, one fresh. These pieces are either co…

Two pieces of flint. Both show signs of working and percussion scars, but neither are complete tools. They are therefore likely to be debitage of probably Neolithic date. 1) an opague light brown colored flint. Some reddish-brown coloured cortex remaining on the concave surface of the wider, flatter, end. The underside f this area has several deliberately longitudinal scars. This wide ares becomes narrower and more triangular in section. One facet of this area has a bulb of percussion and associated ripples. There is no flaking or retouching to the edges. 67mm x 35mm x 24mm. 28.43g.…

A blade / flake debitage fragment on a tertiary flake. The flint has a grey-blue core with a thin white patina stain throughout. The bulb and platform is present on this flake. Like the other flints recovered nearby it is likely that this flint dates from the Bronze Age.

A flint knapping fragment. The flint has a patchy white, opaque patina and also shows signs of exposure to heat (areas have gone white with superficial cracks). The flint has been struck but there are no areas of retouch. There is an area of cortex present that covers approximately one third of the total surface.

Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An un-retouched flint flake (debitage), struck from a core and showing previous flake scars on the dorsal surface. There is no evidence for retouching or further work on either edge and the bulb is retained. This may be a preparation or rejuvenation piece. Generally prehistoric in date (non-diagnostic), but more likely to be later Neolithic or Bronze Age in date (c. 3000-900 BC).

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.

A group of four pieces of flint debitage of probable Mesolithic to Neolithic in date (c. 8000- 2400 BC). Two pieces are secondary flakes and the other two are tertiary flakes. One of the secondary flakes is a medium brown-grey flint with frequent grey patch inclusions (c.5.7mm) that has most of its ventral surface covered in a thin brown cortex. The remaining three flakes have a creamy white patina with occasional grey mottling. The three white flakes show linear narrow blade removals from their dorsal face, all struck in the same direction as the flakes themselves. Two flakes re…
