Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A side scraper fabricated on a thick flake of pale brown flint. The flake has a small bulb of percussion and ripples across the ventral face. The flake appears to be struck from a natural chunk of broken flint that has started to recorticate on the dorsal surface. There is no cortex evident. There is no evidence of previous flake removals. One edge, towards the distal end, has been worked using short, scaled, semi-abrupt retouch into a scraping edge. The scraper probably dates from the late Neolithic to the early Bronze Age.

Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: East Sussex
