Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Tertiary, hard hammer struck flake, of thick, triangular section, of a similar patination to other flints recovered from the Cromer forest bed formation: - it is of dark grey flint with lighter grey inclusions, now stained almost black from exposure to the peaty deposit, making the flint look as if it's of better quality than it is.

Handaxe, of Cleaver form (Wymer's type H) with the primary cutting-edge profile of type E (straight), the other edge can be regarded as a type F (reverse "S" twist), though this is largely due to a natural hollow and awkward knapping angles towards the butt on this side, rather than production from a large struck flake blank, Hollows and cortex are present to both faces suggesting this Cleaver was produced from an amoebic nodule, or natural fractures thereof. All flake removals are semi-hard hammer struck, invasive, and where platform angles allow, overlap the centre-line. The broad t…
