  • Thumbnail image of LVPL-078D84

Record ID: LVPL-078D84
Object type: BLADE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Early Neolithic flint blade. The blade is trapezoidal in shape and in cross-section. 2 flakes have been knapped from one face, one on each side. One edge of the tool has been worked to give it a serrated edge. The tool has broken and so is incomplete- it would have been longer when it was made.

Probably Neolithic possible blade, measuring 40.7x17.3x5.4mm and weighing 3.91g. The distal edge is the widest part and has been worked thin with a little retouch. The right and left edges extend outwards to meet either end of this edge and have been abruptly worked on both dorsal and ventral faces. There is no retouch. The flint is c.90% patinated with a small patch of iron staining. Retouch shows a dark grey flint beneath.

County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A Neolithic or early Bronze Age knapped blade or knife. The flint is knapped from a mottled mid to dark brown flint. The ventral surface has a single negative flake scar, and conchoidal rings, but the bulb of percussion is not visible. The dorsal surface has three vertical negative flake scars with re-touch along one side. The other side some re-touch but also some recent abrasion has taken place. The upper portion appears to have been notched to form a possible haft. It measures 73mm long and 22.68mm wide. It weighs 14.18g. The blade or knife is probably dated to the Neolithic to ear…

A flint blade with a chalky white patina. Evidence for secondary working appears along one edge and partly along the other. This was done a long time after the blade had been struck as the blade had become patinated, thus revealing a dark grey-brown flint.

County: Derbyshire

Neolithic blade; Knapped flint blade of probable Neolithic date (approximately 3500 BC – 2100 BC). The blade is of opaque, cream-white flint with touches of pale blue and rust-colour in its fabric. It is formed of one long flake with further strikes along the ‘front’ face to give a triangular cross-section. The back face has a prominent bulb of percussion where it was struck away from the core. There is some evidence of secondary working to shape the cutting edges along both long sides of the flake. Length 39.6mm, width 14.8mm, thickness 4.5mm, weight 2.73g

A probable knapped flint blade. The blade an elongated trapezoid in plan, with the distal and proximal terminals are missing. In section the blade is triangular, with two parallel scars on the dorsal surface. The flint is a dark brown colour. The blade measures mm long, mm wide and mm thick. It weighs g. The blade probably dates to the Neolithic to the early Bronze Age period, -3500 to –1500.

County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Late Neolithic backed blade, possibly a knife or sickle blade. The blade was made from a tertiary flake, with a flaking angle of 100 degrees and has no remaining cortex. It is 76.9mm long, 27.4mm wide, 14.2mm thick and weighs 28.8 grams. There is some small retouch at the distal end of the ventral face, that on the right hand side is invasive and semi abrupt while that on the left hand side is short and semi abrupt. On the dorsal face their has been extensive retouch to remove material on the right hand side, this has created a blunt, almost flat edge for hafting. The retouch is abru…

Object type: BLADE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Neolithic flint blade. The blade was made on a tertiary blank with no cortex remaining and has extensive retouch. It is 39.8mm long, 17.5mm wide, 5.5mm thick and weighs 3.7g. It may have been used as a small knife or transeverse arrowhead and probably dates to the Mid-Late Neolithic. The bulb of percussion appears to have been removed by shattering of the flint during retouching. There is a small amount of scale retouch half way along the left hand edge of the ventral face and towards the proximal end of the right hand edge; the ventral face is otherwise unworked. The dorsal face is d…

Large flint blade, secondary flake with c. 10% cortex remaining at the distal end. Prominent bulb of percussion; multiple arises and negative bulb scars on the dorsal face. Small area of short, semi-abrupt scaled retouch two thirds of the way down from the proximal end on the right hand edge of the ventral face. Probable damage rather than retouch at the centre of the right hand edge on the dorsal side – possibly an attempt to snap the flint. It maybe a large flake deliberately stuck to remove the mis-struck remains of the previous removal visible on the dorsal face. It is dark grey …

Object type: BLADE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Triangular tertiary flake with no bulb of percussion although wide percussion waves and a wide platform at the top; suggesting it is the snapped end of a larger blade. Use wear along the right edge of the ventral face and left edge of the dorsal face. Possible area of use polish at the distal end on the ventral face. The flint is mid grey with paler inclusions – it has snapped across a wide pale grey area. Difficult to date precisely, it maybe Neolithic in date. 27.8mm long, 19.4mm wide, 4.1mm thick and 2.13grams.

Tertiary blade with bulb of percussion and damaged striking platform. Extensive usewear on left edge of dorsal face Snap at distal end and damage at proximal end of dorsal face and half way up the left edge of the ventral face. The flint is mid grey with a great deal of paler and darker mottling. Difficult to date precisely it could be Neolithic – Bronze Age in date. 59mm long, 24mm wide and 8mm thick.

Small flint blade of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date. The blade is made from a secondary flake - there is still cortex covering the right-hand side of the dorsal face. There are two long flaking scars on the dorsal face. The distal end has evidence of a break, suggesting that the blade was once longer. The flint is dark grey-brown in colour.

Small flint blade, created from a tertiary flake, of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date. The dorsal face has a large, central flaking scar, with another smaller one running alongside the right-hand edge. The left-hand edge has short, parallel, low-angle retouch along its extent.
