  • Thumbnail image of CORN-0A50E4

Record ID: CORN-0A50E4
Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Pottery body sherd made of a coarse fabric with an uneven exterior surface that has several depressions caused by the erosion of large inclusions out of the matrix or perhaps seed impressions. The fabric has fine inclusions of pale felspars and mica with some larger inclusions of quartz added in. The exterior of the sherd is a mid-brown and in the interior more orangey-brown. This type of admixture fabric is found in Bronze Age vessels dating from c.2100 -1150 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming).

Pottery body sherd made of gabbroic clay that weathers over the gabbro outcrop on the Lizard in Cornwall. The exterior and interior of the sherd have depressions which may have been caused by the erosion of larger inclusions from the matrix rather than being deliberate impressions. The fabric has inclusions of pale felspars and dark augite and is orangey-brown on the exterior and mid-brown on the interior of the sherd. This type of fabric is seen in Grooved Ware vessels, dating from c.2900-2400 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming).

Pottery body sherd made of smooth grogged (containing crushed clay) Grooved Ware fabric. The fabric looks polished and baked and it is hard to see any inclusions. It appears to be blackened on the interior of the sherd and a buff colour on the exterior. There are also depressions on the exterior of the sherd which may have resulted from the erosion of inclusions out of the matrix. This type of fabric is most probably Grooved Ware, dating from c.2900-2400 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming).

A cast, copper-alloy, rectangular mount of the Medieval period. The mount is rectangular in plan with an incised and punched, feather-edged line along the border of each of the two longest sides. Between these two lines is a central, wavy line of the same design along the length of the mount. To either side of the central line are incised, elongated comma-shaped motifs. There is a drilled rivet hole close to each of the shorter edges. One copper-alloy rivet is in-situ, the other rivet is missing. There is old damage to the mount around the empty rivet hole, indicating that is was pris…

A cast, copper-alloy mount of the Medieval to Post-Medieval period. The mount is rectangular in plan with an integrally-cast terminal at one end consisting of opposing, outward-facing crescents, joined at their centres across the width of the mount by a moulded, rectangular bar and a circular loop at the apex. The loop is drilled, probably to accept a rivet. The opposite end of the mount is broken squarely across another, drilled rivet hole. No rivets remain. There is old damage to the mount around the circular loop, indicating that is was prised off its original fixing point using a …

Flint flake, elongated ovoid in plan and splinter shaped in profile. The dorsal side has a convex surface with a central mesial ridge. The distal end is blunt and the proximal end both snapped and abraded. The right margin has a serrated edge and the left margin a notch worked mid way. On the ventral side there is a visible bulb of percussion by the proximal end with small flake removal. The flint is semi translucent and fawn with an opaque oatmeal tip in colouring. Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 186, Fig. 76, No. 10 which is dated to the Bronze Age period.
