Record ID: NMS-8FFAC7
Object type: CORE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Core, made from a large hard hammer struck flake, with a large bulbal scar to the ventral face, and several semi-invasive and centripetally struck hard hammer flakes removed from the dorsal face, also towards the centre of this face is a patch of thermally (frost) fracured surface where the flakes haven't overlapped. Banded flint now patinated white, yellow and orange. Possibly Early Neolithic, cf. Butler (2005) page 120, fig. 47, nuber 6 for a broadly similar dicoidal core.

Record ID: NMS-8E934F
Object type: CORE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Discoidal core, bifacially and centripetally knapped from a nodule of mottled grey flint, now patinated pale off-white, with spotty iron stains to both faces. All flake removals appear to be hard hammer struck. Likely to be broadly Neolithic. Cf. Butler (2005) Page 120, Fig. 47, number 6 for an Early Neolithic example.

Record ID: NMS-8E4D6C
Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
>Possible rough-out of an arrowhead, hard hammer struck tertiary flake, of unpatinated, glossy mottled grey flint, bulb removed and edges coarsly shaped by bifacial, and in parts, unifacial steep retouch to a sub-triangular plan form. No invasive pressure flaking noted. A little on the thick side for an arrowhead, this may be the reason for its abandonment.
