Object type: SPEAR
Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Small tertiary, hard hammer struck spear or knife-like implement, of sub-triangular plan form and of patinated dark orange/brown flint. Both lateral edges are steeply retouched on the dorsal face, the platform has been removed by steep bifacial retouch, presumably to enable hafting. Possibly middle to late Palaeolithic.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A large flint end scraper of probable Palaeolithic or later date. The scraper is formed from a large flint flake that is light to medium grey in colour with a thick medium to dark brown iron stained surface, the grey flint visible where exposed by plough damage. It has steep edge retouching but no evidence of glacial rolling. The scraper measures 87.57mm in length, 57.95mm in width, 22.64mm in thickness, and weighs 142.97g.

Object type: POINT
Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
A patinated blade point projectile of Early Upper Palaeolithic date. It is struck from a grey flint that is patinated dark yellow/orange to brown, particularly at the proximal(?) end. The blade is triangular in cross section, with parallel blade scars on the dorsal face and a hinge fracture at the distal(?) end. Both edges have limited flake removal that is perhaps the result of use wear or damage rather than deliberate retouch. At the proximal(?) end the dorsal face has invasive and low angled parallel flake removal, while the ventral face has extensive covering and scaled retouch. I…

a snapped longblade, of probable Upper Paleolithic date. It is an orange-brown flint, rectangular and 95.48mm in length (width between 37 and 45mm) weighing 65.69g. The longblade has retouch along one edge, with smaller areas of retouch along the other edge and the distal end fracture. The retouch could be the result of re-utilisation at a later date.
