Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete cast lead object probably a weight or gaming piece of uncertain date. It is rectangular in form and section. All surfaces are undecorated. This object measures 22.85mm in length, 18.87mm in width, 6.65mm in thickness, 26.06g in weight. There are similar examples recorded on the PAS database (SF-EB7D11), (LON-6A4983), (NMS-7F64B5), (NMS-05E756). These all suggest a variety of dates, however a later date seems most likely, perhaps in the Medieval to Post-Medieval periods.

Record ID: SWYOR-6EEDC2
Object type: BORER
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Kirklees
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Flint borer, of uncertain date, Mesolithic to Neolithic (9000 - 2200 BC). The flint is a brown colour and is translucent. It is a tertiary flake and is roughly teardrop shaped in plan and flat elliptical in section. The flint has a sharp curved point at the distal end. This point has been produced by minimal short, sub-parallel, semi-abrupt, soft hammer retouch to the left edge of the distal end carried out from the dorsal face. There is also edge damage, or possible very fine retouch on the right side at the proximal end. The flint is 30.2mm long x 14.5mm wide x 4.2mm thick. Weight 1.2g.

Object type: GAMING PIECE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Liverpool
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Three lead alloy possible gaming pieces of uncertain date. Each piece is circular in plan and is cylindrical. At the top and bottom of each piece, eight sub-triangular or wedge shapes are cut out of the face of the object, creating a sunburst pattern. The objects are decorated with vertical ridges running down their length. Two of the gaming pieces weigh 9.0g while the third with more rounded and worn edges weighs 8.3g. Each piece has a mid-brown to light white patina. Due to their small size these objects would not have been practical as a pottery stamps. Although an exact paralle…
