Secondary, hard hammer struck flake, of black and grey flint, now lightly patininated orange and white, the edges are broken at a steep angle resembling retouch, though this is later damage as they lack the same degree of patination. Three large flakes have been previously removed to the dorsal face, one overlaps another and looks like part of the same flake scar. The wide platform has four incipient cones of percussion from trying to remove this flake, the last one (very close to a previous blow) clearly "did the job".

Record ID: SF-49F58E
Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A patinated flake, perhaps a core rejuvenation flake, of possible final Upper Palaeolithic to Mesolithic date. It is struck from a grey/brown flint with blue/grey patination, cortex remaining a long one edge. The flake has a small striking platform and bulb of percussion and is triangular in cross-section. On the dorsal face there are multiple parallel flake or blade scars struck obliquely to the striking platform and perhaps suggestive that this may be a core rejuvenation flake. The distal end has possible 'bruised' edge damage or limited crude semi-abrupt and scaled retouch. It meas…

A patinated flake, perhaps a core rejuvenation flake, of possible final Upper Palaeolithic to Mesolithic date. It is struck from a grey/brown flint with blue/grey patination, cortex remaining in a small area at the distal end. The flake has a small striking platform and relatively prominent bulb of percussion with multiple flake scars on the dorsal face. One side of the flake may perhaps have formed part of a core platform with damage or preparation from where the flakes and blades were originally struck. Along one side of the flake is a small area of 'bruised' edge damage, perhaps re…
