Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Medway
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
This is a scraper worked on a stout flake of marbled brown nodular flint.The ventral surface and platform show 2 complete bulbs of percussion. Rather than poor technique this may be a way of producing large, broad and flat flakes. Multiple bulbs of percussion occur on some other flakes from this deposit.The plan of the tool is broadly triangular with steep flakework on the expanding margins from the butt. The distal end is also steeply flaked and slightly undercut with re-sharpening as the main working edge.

The distal end has remaining nodular cortex.This has been retouched with short stepped scars as an end scraper.The proximal end has been narrowed with abrupt retouch to form a tang to perhaps haft into a bome handle, but it is quite easy to grip without this. The right margin is thin and is retouched or damaged. It is still straight and may have been used as a knife.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Medway
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An end scraper formed on a hard hammer struck flake from a prepared nodule of marbled brown flint.The preparation removals at the proximal end have thinned the tool towards the butt. This has been retouched on the left dorsal margin to a blunt and wide notch with another smaller one close to the mesal. Together these make a strong grip to wrap the fingers around and over the ventral surface.The distal end of the tool is thin and of convex plan with semi-invasive bifacial flake scars to give a sharp and strong working edge.

A scraper formed on a flake struck from the cortex of a nodule of marbled brown flint. The striking platform and bulb of percussion have been removed and the plan of the piece has been given bilateral symmetry by abrupt and semi-abrupt removals at the margin.The useable scraper edge runs around all but the back of the tool; which is blunted for a good grip. Another cortical scraper with deliberate symmetry and attention to forming a good hold found in this deposit is CORN-672020, (655.2).
