Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Pottery body sherd made of gabbroic clay that weathers over the gabbro outcrop on the Lizard in Cornwall. There are two parallel linear incisions running obliquely across the exterior of the sherd. The fabric has inclusions of pale felspars, dark augite and mica and is orangey-brown on the exterior and mid-brown with some black residue on the interior of the sherd. This 'mucky' gabbroic fabric and type of decoration is seen on Grooved Ware vessels, dating from c.2900-2400 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming).
T.G. Manby in Cleal & MacSween (1999) illustrates similar decoration on a …

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A pebble of mid grey flint with cream flecks has been worked into a core with step fractured removals on the dorsal surface. A deeper struck flake removed the flaked face. Then a flake has been removed from the ventral surface and this edge used as a platform to abruptly remove flakes to make a scraper. Use has left slight abrasion to the undercut edge. Mercer(1981) illustrates a scraper on page 135, fig 59, L146.

Pottery rim sherd made of gabbroic clay that weathers over the gabbro outcrop on the Lizard in Cornwall. There is a deep groove on the upper surface of the rim within an external everted rib. Below the rim are some small impressions but a pattern is not obvious. This sort of stepped rim corresponds to those on other Grooved Ware vessels, particularly of the Clacton style (Manby, 1999, 61). The fabric has inclusions of pale felspars, dark augite and mica and is mid-brown on the exterior and orangey-brown on the interior of the sherd. This 'mucky' gabbroic fabric and type of decoration …

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A core of mottled cream and grey flint with rusty spots.It has been worked from both ends for flakes and there have been transverse removals when the pebble was bigger. The platform edges have been abraded but it proved difficult to proceed further as the base had become small and liable to crush. Butler(2005) illustrates an opposed platform core on page 87, fig 31, 4.
