Record ID: SF-03BCD0
Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
A simple patinated leaf-shaped flint arrowhead. Possibly retouched and re-utilised as a notched tool. This leaf arrowhead consists of a pale/medium grey patinated flint with basic retouch confined to the flake edges on both faces. On one face there is a quite large concave unpatinated notch showing the original honey-brown coloured flint. This notch appears to be deliberate re-utilisation/retouch. This arrowhead is dated to the Neolithic period and may have been reused in the Bronze Age.

Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
A complete, but somewhat rolled/abraded, flaked flint axehead. In form the axehead expands from a narrow butt to a broad rounded cutting edge. Measuring 170mm in length, 61mm in width and 40mm thick. The axehead is so abraded that the sharp edges to all the flake scars have been lost, the cutting edge is also blunt. The flint is a mottled, pale grey in colour and has one smallish area of cortex on one edge. A few small sub-circular fossiliserous voids are visible on the surface. The axehead is well made with all-over even flaking. There is no obvious polishing, although the abrasion m…

Record ID: SF-42B8C0
Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
A reworked Neolithic polished stone reworked axehead. It is roughly oval in shape and plano-convex in cross section. Several areas on both faces feature the original polished surface and this is particularly apparent at the butt end of one face. The outer end appears to have broken away, however, and the remaining portion of the axe has been retouched with large, scaled, invasive flakes to allow it to be reused. The stone is light grey in colour, perhaps some kind of flint, with some patination and patches of high gloss in places.
The original polished axe would have been of Neolit…

Record ID: SF-4AACD8
Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
An incomplete and re-worked polished Neolithic axehead. It is roughly oval in form and pointed-oval in cross section, and struck from a mottled pale grey flint. One edge and part of one face have the remains of extensive polishing, however the surrounding areas of both faces have extensive flake removal. The axe is very sort and both ends of the object have short, semi-abrupt and scaled retouch. Thissuggeststhat it may have been damaged or broken in antiquity and then subsequently re-worked for different usage, the original polished axe being much larger. It measures 73.29mm in length…

Record ID: SF-946E90
Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
A small flint object, possibly a small leaf-shaped arrowhead struck on a blade. It has a mottled brown flint, with parallel blade scars on the dorsal face and limited edge retouch. The entire object measures 28.90mm in length, 14.30mm in width, 3.94mm in thickness and 1.78g in weight. This is a possible leaf-shaped arrowhead struck on a small blade. If this is indeed the case then it is likely to be of Neolithic date (c.4000-2550 BC), however is it is simply a retouched blade then an earlier Mesolithic date cannot be ruled out entirely.
