Record ID: SWYOR-EC7CEE
Object type: RETOUCHED FLAKE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Calderdale
Workflow stage: Published
A flint retouched blade of unknown date, probably Mesolithic to Neolithic, about 10,000 BC - 2200 BC. It is formed on mottled tan and gray flint which is not patinated. It is sub-rectangular in plan with a rounded distal end, and has a double dorsal ridge making it trapezoidal in section. It has short, semi-abrupt, sub-parallel retouch on the distal end of both sides, and there is edge damage along both sides, perhaps suggesting utilisation as a cutting tool. The retouched areas could have functioned as scrapers, or could be backin on a possible knife. It is 53.06mm long, 13.72mm wide…

Object type: BORER
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Calderdale
Workflow stage: Published
A flint retouched blade possibly used as an awl or borer of probably Neolithic date, about 4000 BC - 2200 BC. It is formed on a secondary tan flint blade which is not patinated. Cortex survives at the distal end of the left side of the dorsal face. It is sub-rectangular in plan with a pointed distal end, and has a partial double dorsal ridge making it trapezoidal to triangular in section. It has short, abrupt, very fine, sub-parallel retouch on the proximal end of both sides. Both ends are snapped, but the distal end is pointed and could have been used as a borer. The retouch on the l…

Workflow stage: Published
A flint lithic implement, possibly used as a scraper and burin, of probably Mesolithic date, about 10,000 BC - 4000 BC. It is formed on a tertiary tan flint blade which is not patinated. It is sub-rectangular in plan with an oblique proximal end and, and has a double dorsal ridge making it trapezoidal in section. It has short, abrupt, sub-parallel retouch on the proximal end which could have been used as a scraper. This working is on a truncated end that completely removes the bulb of percussion. The point formed on the left proximal corner could have been used as a burin or graver. T…

Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Post Medieval cast copper-alloy mount. In plan the mount is a slender piriform shape, with a moulded upper surface and flat back. The reverse has a pair of integral prongs inset from either end, one of which has been truncated by an old break. Both prongs are bent towards the narrow end of the mount. The artefact has a mottled green brown colour. A similar mount has been published and illustrated (Read 2001: 29. fig.22. ref: 328). Mounts of this type are usually dated to circa 17th century AD. It measures 31.2 x 10.6 x 2.3mm and weighs 2.97g.

A flint lithic implement, probably used as a microlithic graver, of Mesolithic date, about 10,000 BC - 4000 BC. It is formed on a tertiary patinated flint blade. It is sub-rectangular in plan with an oblique distal end and is wedge shaped in section. It has short, abrupt, sub-parallel retouch on the distal end forming a point at the left distal corner which could have been used as a graver. There are also removals along the right side and at the right proximal corner, two longitudinal removals along the right edge form a wedge shaped point which could also have been used as a graver. …

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete flint thumbnail scraper Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date, about 2700 BC - 1600 BC. It is formed on a secondary grey flint flake which is partially patinated, and cracked, perhaps from exposure to heat. It is broken, with the distal end missing. It is currently sub-rectangular in plan, but would originally have been sub-circular. It is plano-convex in section. There is invasive, sub-parallel, semi-abrupt retouch on both surviving sides. The proximal end is covered with crazed cortex. The scraper is 10.48mm long, 18.8mm wide and 5.13mm thick. 1.23g.
