Record ID: SUR-AF4E5B
Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Neolithic or early Bronze Age scraper struck from a secondary flake of grey flint, 49.4mm in length. The distal end and adjacent part of the right side has short abrupt retouch to define a working edge. The other side of the distal end is broken, and has battering damage, probably pre-dating the removal of the flake from the core. A small area of light brown coloured cortex is retained on one side of the proximal end of the dorsal surface, which tapers to a small striking platform.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Gloucestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Neolithic scraper on a secondary flake. This has an off-centre arise on the dorsal and a very large bulb of percussion on the ventral. The forward edge has semi-abrupt, direct retouch that creates a curved leading edge. The flint is covered in a creamy patina with light grey patches, 3% cortex on the leading edge.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An end scraper struck from a secondary flake or nodule fragment of dark grey flint with a light brown cortex retained over 40% of the dorsal surface. The distal end has long semi abrupt parallel retouch defining a working edge; there is also possibly secondary working or retouch evident along the left side long edge although this is less clearly defined.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A triangular flint blade of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date, 43.7mm in length and struck from a patinated grey flint with a small patch of cortex on the distal end. The right side of the long edge towards the distal point has been worked with short abrupt retouch suggesting possible use as a piercer and there is a second patch of retouch around a notch on the left side long edge, suggesting that the tool may have been multi functional. This retouch has clearly broken through the blue-grey patination suggesting later prehistoric re-use of a much earlier struck blade, pos…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Neolithic flint nosed or hollow scraper struck from a secondary flake of grey brown flint. The distal end and left side long edge has short abrupt retouch defining two slightly concave working edges, with further retouch around the rounded projection between, on the left corner which has been similarly worked to create a "nose". The proximal end retains a small patch of cortex.

Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A secondary flake of dark grey brown flint which appears to have been removed by hard hammer from a nodule and re-used as a tool, probably in the later prehistoric period. The distal end is triangular with steep sides defined by long and short semi-abrupt retouch into a working point. The right side long edge has scaled low angle retouch on the ventral face to refine a cutting edge suggesting the tool may have had a variety of functions.

Object type: MICROLITH
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete flint microlith of early Mesolithic date (Clark Group F; Jacobi Group C, 10a), probably a Horsham point. The original form was asymmetrical and triangular. One long side is backed with abrupt retouch, the convex side feathers to an edge which has a patch of short abrupt retouch blunting it at the proximal end and an area of what may be use related damage towards the distal end. The proximal end is concave with a hollow base defined by abrupt retouch. The distal point has broken off.

A curved flint blade of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date, 63mm in length and struck from a patinated grey-brown flint with small patches of cortex on the distal end and dorsal surface. The distal end has been worked into a point with short abrupt retouch along the concave edge, suggesting possible use as a piercer. There is a second patch of retouch around a small notch near the proximal end, suggesting that the tool may have been multi functional.

Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A later Neolithic flint arrowhead of oblique type struck from a tertiary flake of brown flint, c. 3000-2100 BC. The cross section is asymmetrical and triangular with a flat and a convex face. One long edge has retouch along what appears to be the line of a break to refine a blunted edge running to the sharp point. The base has long low angle sub parallel retouch and is slanted.

Object type: RETOUCHED FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Neolithic worked flint flake, c.4000-2000 BC. This flake is sub-trapezoidal secondary flake that is missing its strike platform and percussion bulb. On the dorsal side there are two ridges that run parallel from the proximal to the distal terminal. The  ventral face features ripples. The object has an irregular cross section. The flint is dark brown in colour.

Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A possible Neolithic piece of possible debitage, c.4000-2400 BC. This is a tertiary flake of dark grey flint with occasional light grey inclusions. It has a semi-glossy patina. The flake is sub-rectangular in plan and sub-rectangular in section. There is no clear striking platform. There is some evidence of flake removals on the ventral surface. The dorsal surface is smooth and is unworked.

Object type: FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Neolithic knapped flake, c.4000-2000 BC. It is a sub rectangular section of a longer flake, with bulb of percussion at one end. The edges of this ventral surface expand just am little towards the break and the face shows concentric ripples. On the dorsal surface there are flake scars and two roughly parallel longitudinal flake scar ridges down the middle, leaving lower left and right margins as 'beveled' edges with abrupt retouch. There is a possible notch on the left distal edge.

Object type: BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A barbed and tanged flint arrowhead, 31mm in length, dating to the early Bronze Age / Beaker period (c. 2500 BC-c. 1500 BC) and made from a pale brown flint. The arrowhead is triangular with lenticular cross-section and has scaled and low angle retouch on both sides. The barbs are longer than the tang and convex on the outer edges with obliquely angled tips (Type C) and the tang is narrow and rounded (Type G).  This example fits into the sub-classification of non-Fancy B&T arrowheads best described as Green Low types (Butler 2005: 162-165, after Green (1980).
