Object type: TRANSVERSE ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published Find published
Mottled grey semi-translucent flint of high quality transverse arrowhead. Knapped flint transverse arrow head. A notched lozenge-shaped flint with long blade removal scars on what is taken to be the dorsal side hammer and pressure flaking particularly on the rear end of blade; some further scars appear to be struck from the edges and probably represent post-depositional damage. This flint was previously noted by Mike Hemblade of the North Lincolnshire Historic Environment Record. Suggested date: Neolithic, 3500-2100 BC. Length: 50.8mm, Width: 21.1mm, Thickness: 5mm, Weight: 3.65gms.

Pale grey to brown flint or chert. Hand Axe. Bifacial symmetrical pointed hand axe of oval section, with a smooth butt formed of the natural cortex of a flint nodule. The flint was extensively worked with prominent conchoidal ripples suggesting the initial use of a hard hammer, reducing the size of what is in effect a core. To judge from the direction of the ripples, much of this working proceeded inwards from both edges of the tool. The marks of working are in general well defined. The original surface of the object is iron stained to a honey colour on one side, and s…
