Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A piece of flint debitage of probable Neolithic-Bronze Age date, circa 4000 - 801 BC. It is a tertiary flake and therefore retains no cortex. The dorsal face exhibits 6 negative flake scars from previous flake removal. The proximal end has a striking platform, and a low bulb of percussion is present on the ventral face. The flint is grey in colour with white-grey inclusions. It measures 49.79mm in length, 42.78mm in width, 8.47mm in thickness and weighs 19.92g

Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Flint implement, hardly patinated, probably an early Neolithic laurel-leaf shaped flint arrowhead (comp. Bond 2004, fig. 5.120). The object is in very good condition and hardly patinated. It was knapped from brown opaque, translucent flint and shows retouch on both ventral and dorsal faces as well as around the edges. The flint is gently curved and one edge seems to bear more retouch marks than the other. This suggests that although having the correct shape for a laurel-leaf shaped arrowhead, it could also have been a scraper and of slightly later Neolithic or even Early Bronze Age da…

Record ID: YORYM-DB0428
Object type: PLANO CONVEX KNIFE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete knapped lithic implement of late Neolithic to early Bronze Age date, circa 2700 BC - 1600 BC. The implement is a plano-convex knife formed from a secondary flake which is D-shaped in plan and section. Both the ventral and dorsal surfaces are worked, the dorsal more so, displaying numerous smaller flake removals. Short, low angle, scaled retouch is present around the right edge. The flint is a dark grey colour. The implement is 64.7mm long, 42.7mm wide, 12mm thick and weighs 39.8g.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete knapped lithic implement of Neolithic date, circa 4000 - 2300 BC. The implement is an end scraper formed from a tertiary flake which is D-shaped in plan and section. The ventral surface is smooth with prominent ripples of percussion suggesting the hard hammer technique was used in its removal. The dorsal surface is irregular with abrupt, short and sub-parallel retouch along the distal edge forming the scraping surface. The flint is a mid-grey colour. The implement is 55.2mm long, 36.8mm wide, 8.2mm thick and weighs 18.7g. Scrapers are fairly ubiquitous throughout preh…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete knapped lithic implement of late Neolithic to early Bronze Age date, circa 2700 - 1600 BC. The implement is a notched scraper formed from a secondary flake which is sub-ovate in plan with a D-shaped section. The ventral surface displays multiple flake removals and the dorsal surface retains a large patch of cortex. Smaller flake removals are present at the right distal end. The notched surface is present on the right proximal portion and is formed of short, abrupt, scaled retouch from the ventral side. The distal end also displays irregular abrupt retouch and may have serve…
