Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Bradford
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
44 flint debitage blades probably dating from the Mesolithic period, about 9000 BC - 4000 BC. The debitage includes translucent light grey flint and dark grey opaque chert of poor quality. All are secondary or tertiary pieces, and some have some patination. Some pieces display platform preparation. Many of the blades and bladelets are snapped; this could be post-depositional damage.

Object type: BLADE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint piercer made on a bladelet dating to the Late Upper Palaeolithic to Mesolithic period (c. 20,000-4,000 BC). The piercer has been made on a tertiary flake of a mottled orange-brown flint. The bulb is retained as is the small fragment of the platform. There are two flake scars on the dorsal surface. The lower half of the left hand edge of the dorsal side has been worked with soft hammer precussion, becoming more invasive towards the tip of the piercer, which has detatched, possibly during production but potentially after deposition.

Record ID: NMS-7F0B55
Object type: JETTON
Broad period: MEDIEVAL
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Medieval copper alloy French jetton dating to the period c. AD 1418 - 1437. Crown type. Probably struck at Paris. See: Mitchener, M, 1988, p. 194, no. 535. The unusual weight and thickness of this example suggests it may be piedfort. Introduction of thicker and heavier piedfort jettons during the 15th century appears to have resulted from the popularisation of a new method of performing calculations in manual accountancy. A collection of stationary jettons which were heavier and thicker were issued as reference points for the lighter mobile jettons in order to make these calculations.

Record ID: DUR-7EFB76
Object type: WALL PLASTER
Broad period: ROMAN
County: County Durham
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A small fragment of plaster from the Roman period (AD43-410). The fragment is made up of a relatively hard white material with very small gritty inclusions. The surface has been flattened, smoothed and painted with a red ochre colour ( known as Pompeian Red), though the paint has crazed, it is still in a good condition. It is not certain if this fragment came from the main panel of a wall or part of a larger fresco. The fragment was found in an area that was known as part of Roman occupation, now known as Old Durham. However, much of the archaeological evidence has been quar…

An incomplete copper alloy anthromorphic probable steelyard weight of the Roman period, dating from c. AD 43 - c. AD 410. The object is in the shape of a human head, probably representing a Classical deity. At the top of the object is the remains of a suspension loop with a circular perforation. The loop is set at a right angle to the head, and has been broken, presumed in antiquity. The figure appears to be male, the short straight hair is depicted as vertical, evenly spaced grooves, is straight at the back of the head and protrudes from the back of the neck. The hair has a centre…
