Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An assemblage of eleven pieces of debitage of Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date (c. 2700 - 1601 BC). The assemblage consists of ten flakes and one blade. They vary in length from 67.42mm to 30.88mm and in width from 52.13mm to 17.17mm. Their collective weight is 274.44g. Eight pieces retain between c. 5% and 35% cortex on their surface and have been struck off secondary flakes. The other two retain no traces of cortex and have been struck off tertiay flakes. Where bulbs of pecussion are visible, they are large with prominent ripple marks, indicating some hard hammer working. The…

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A late Neolithic or early Bronze Age scraper formed from a discoidal core dating to the period c. 2700 - 1801 BC. The scraper is oval in shape with one slightly flatter edge. There is no visible bulb of percussion. This may have been removed by flake removal. The ventral surface exhibits three negative flake removal scars along the top edge. It also exhibits a number of chips around the bottom edge which are most likely recent damage, given the shape of the chips and the colour of patination which is slightly darker than the rest of the object. The dorsal surface has been flaked across…
