A copper alloy medieval seal matrix dating to the period c. AD 1250 - 1300. The seal matrix is a pointed oval shape and features a D-shaped integral pierced lug on the reverse. There is a longitudinal ridge extending from the bottom of the pierced loop to the tip of the seal matrix on the reverse.
The matrix depicts a pelican in her piety, the pelican piercing its own breast to feed its chicks in a nest below, the nest resting in the upper branches of a larger branch. Surrounding the central motif is the legend [...] DEVM TIM ET The pelican in her piety is a motif known to be a symbol of Christ's sacrfice to mankind.
The majority of pointed oval shaped personal matrices appear to date from the mid to late 13th century (Cf. Harvey & McGuinness 1996: 79-88).
The seal matrix measures 29.41mm in length, 17.21mm maximum width, 2.58mm minimum width and is 3.03mm thick, not including the pierced lug and 5.82mm thick including the pierced lug. It weighs 6.45g.

An incomplete copper alloy Iron Age La Tene I brooch dating to the period c. 400 - 200 BC. Only two loops of the pin remain wrapped around the remains of the copper alloy axis bar. It terminates in an old break. The pin is missing. The bow arches upwards from the head and is cylindrical in cross-section. The bow is undecorated. It then arches downwards into the foot which terminates in a curled catchplate.
The brooch measures 31.48mm in length, 6.05mm maximum width, 2.87mm minimum width and is 6.46mm thick. It weighs 3.36g.

The axehead is trapezoidal in shape and widens from the butt end to the blade. It tapers in thickness from the butt end to the blade. The axehead has an oval cross-section at the butt end and a lenticular cross-section at the blade end. The butt end of the axehead was broken off in antiquity and the remaining fragment reused. The butt end appears to have been used as a hammer stone. There is evidence of pecking on this surface and it is slightly rounded. The cutting edge of the blade has been deliberately removed by grinding and polishing into a flat surface with a lenticular cross-section. The reason for this is unknown. The axehead is a dark green-brown in colour and is still slightly polished, most noticeably where the cutting edge has been removed.
The axehead measures 70.67mm in length, 55.53mm maximum width, 42.41mm minimum width, 34.32mm maximum thickness, 15.64mm minimum thickness and weighs 235.39g.99-4000-250013WILTSSWM 42552014-12-09T14:15:23Z2022-12-29T17:25:56Z235.39PAS548703FB001C7D34.3255.5370.67121412241427439251719243925WiltshireWiltshireLuckingtonST858351.54569169-2.21770251263516618WILT-704198Stone11794Ground/polishedCompleteNEOLITHICx14337NEOLITHICx14337x14337Chance find during metal detectingReturned to finderWILT-703FBC.jpg496906images/rhenry2/South WestCertain12022-12-29T17:25:56.06ZEarlyWiltshire10Unitary AuthorityBRONZE AGE1Chance find during metal detectingWILT-6FD4E9.jpg43925From finder1172391NE16.17Unitary AuthorityCertain4WILT43925-1601Grittletonx143372635165365.62Wiltshire117942015-01-12T15:28:25ZReturned to finder1South WestCirca
An incomplete stone macehead of Mesolithic to early Bronze Age date (c. 8500 - 1601BC). The macehead is made from a smooth waterworn quartzite pebble. The macehead is semi-circular in shape. Approximately 50% remains. There is a break across the centre of the peforation. The hourglass profile of the perforation indicates that it was worked from both sides. There is some evidence of pecking on the rounded edge of the macehead, indicating that it may have been used as a pebble hammer. The quartzite is orange-brown in colour with red-brown inclusion, indicating a high iron content.
The macehead measures 47.58mm in length, 58.19mm in width, is 16.17mm thick and weighs 65.62g.
Perforated objects such as this exmple appear in the Mesolithic, but are also seen much later, hence the broad date range ascribed to this example.

An assemblage of eleven pieces of debitage of Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date (c. 4000 - 1601 BC). The assemblage consists of seven flakes and four blades. They vary in length from 44.42mm to 28.69mm and in width from 35.12mm to 6.88mm. Their collective weight is 89.92g. Four pieces retain between c. 5% and 35% cortex on their surface and have been struck off secondary flakes. The other seven retain no traces of cortex and have been struck off tertiay flakes.
