Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete knapped flint probably scraper of the Bronze Age period, dating to 2500-1100 BC. It has been manufactured on a secondary flake of black-grey flint. The ventral surface is smooth with a recess where the bulb of percussion was; there might have been the attempt of flattening the face knapping the bulb off. The dorsal surface has a main lateral ridge and a crescent-shaped recess just on the inner side of the ridge. It has a sub-triangular shape in plan with all the edges worked by scaled short semi-abrupt retouch, although the edges are not fully worked and not in both faces. …

Object type: BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete knapped flint barbed and tanged arrowhead of Green's 'Ballyclare' type, dating c. 2500-1500 BC. One barb, the tang and part of the tip are broken away, but otherwise it survives intact. Manufactured on a tertiary flake of fine-grained translucent blackish-brown flint, it is triangular in plan-tapering along its length to a sharp point. The surviving barb is squared off, though due to breakage the form of the tang cannot be ascertained. Covering bifacial pressure-flaked retouch has removed the entirety of the original flake surface on both sides of the object. Preserved i…
