1: A squat leaf-shaped biface, quite thick and crude, probably a small neolithic laurel leaf type flint, slight blue-grey patination. 2: End scraper hand hammer struck, unpatinated, probably Neolithic or Early Bronze Age. 3: Snapped long flake with areas of edge retouch, including notch. Deep brown stained, Upper Palaeolithic to Neolithic in date. 4: Squat secondary flake with limited edge retouch, probably Bronze Age.

Object type: HANDAXE
Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
A unifacial plano-convex handaxe made on a large flake which remains without further retouch on the bulbous face. There is extensive all-over heavy flaking on the dorsal face. The flint is a motled brown due to staining, the surface is relatively glossy and the flake edges are all slightly rounded suggesting either rolling or wind/water abrasion. This handaxe is Lower Palaeolithic in date. Dr Kevin Leahy adds: the unifacial form of this implement suggests that it was made using the Levallois technique which would allow it to be placed in the Middle Palaeolithic.

A heavily stained medium brown abraded worked flint blade. Measuring 88mm in length and 23mm in width this blade has extensive recent damage exposing a plae grey flint beneath the patina. It is most likely to have been either water abraded or a glacial erratic. It is Palaeolithic in date.

Workflow stage: Published
Thin biface, slightly rolled. Slightly asymmetric with one side relatively thick and blunt, suggesting knife type implement rather than laurel leaf. Good quality all-over shallow flaking. Some patination and staining. This is difficult to date because of its rolled condition. This and its colouring gives it a Palaeolithic appearance though it could equally well be of Neolithic or Bronze Age date.

A flint single edged biface which is relatively crude. Although there is no obvious staining or patination, this flint could possibly be a Palaeolithic chopper-like tool. It is sub rectangular in form, has three sides of cortex, two-thirds of one face are also cortex and the final face is mainly a large pot-lid fracture.

An irregular flint flake, measuring 64mm in length and 31mm in width at its widest point, it is 8mm in thickness. It has been retouched at a later date along most edges, which includes a notch, there is a possiblility however that this 'retouch' could in fact be modern plough damage. The flake has a mottled blue/white and medium brown patina. However, the underlying flint colour, as exposed by the possible retouch is a deep chocolate brown, similar to SF-8e8c86, Sf-8eb0a3, and SF-8ede62, which were discovered in the same area. It is probably late Upper Paleolithic or earlier to Mes…

A pointed oval shaped lithic implement measuring 145mm in length, 48mm in width and 12mm in thickness. A dark grey/black flint has been revealed by modern chips beneath a medium and dark brown staining, possibly from exposture in river deposits. Bifacial all over soft hammer flaking is present. The tip is not sharp and in relatively freah condition. It is very similar to Upper Paleolithic solutrean points but could also be early Bronze Age or Beaker period in date. C.Pendleton suggests checking with other experts, especially those interested in Upper Paleolithic industries, eg Rog…
