A Prehistoric flint flake, probably Neolithic to early Bronze Age . The flake is a tertiary flake with no cortex remaining. The flake is incomplete due to modern damage, the distal end is missing but the bulb and striking platform are present. There is no retouch present. Circa 3500-1500 BC. The flint is light-dark grey with an opaque patina. Dimensions: length 21.92mm; width 16.13mm; thickness 7.45mm; weight 2.48g

Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A broken blade fragment made on a teriary flake. The platform and bulb is retained. The flint has a blue-grey core covered with a thick white patina from the chalk. The object has partial retouch on the dorsal edges and is broken at the distal end. It is crude in its manufacture and finishing, suggesting a Bronze Age date, like the rest of the assemblage from this area. The lithic measures 41.49mm long, 16.98mm wide and is 4.92mm thick. It weighs 5.7gms.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint blade dating from the early Neolithic period (c.4000-3000 BC). The blade is made on a secondary flake of a dark grey, semi-translucent flint. The distal end retains approximately 20% brown-white cortex. The blade is retouched around all dorsal edges apart from at the distal end; thinning of the bulb is evident at the proximal end on the ventral side. The blade widens from 7.41mm at the proximal end to 23.34mm at the distal end and has a roughly trapezoidal cross section.

Two broken flint blades dating to the Mesolithic period (10,000-4001 BC). The blades are both made from a bluish-grey flint, with white patina. One example retains approximately 20% cortex. Neither specimin is retouched and both are broken at the proximal end.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A truncated blade fragment dating to the Mesolithic period (10,000-4001 BC). The blade fragment is made from a mottled blue-grey flint and does not retain either the platform or bulb of percussion. There is weather damage at the proximal end on the dorsal surface. A small area of soft-hammer retouch can be seen on the right dorsal lateral, although this may be later reuse.
