Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Wakefield
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint scraper of Mesolithic or Neolithic date, about 9000 - 2200 BC.It is formed on a secondary flake of yellow grey flint with some patchy speckled patination. The flake is D shaped with a straight right edge. It has been worked from the proximal end, with some long flakes removed from the dorsal face. The proximal end and proximal left side are retouched with short, sub-parallel, abrupt removals forming the scraping edge. Cortex survives on the distal end and most of the right side. There is also a small area of retouch at the distal end which is fine, worked from the ventral face…

Mesolithic to Neolithic (c. 7000 to 2350 BC) debitage: Two flakes knapped from flint. 1. The flake is a tertiary flake with a trapezoidal section. The dorsal surface has three vertical scars and the dorsal surface one. The dorsal surface has conchoidal ripples, low bulb of percussion and bulbar scars. The flake is knapped from flint which is a light brown colour which is developing a mottled light grey patina. It measures 21.45mm long, 18.48mm wide, 4.54mm thick and weighing 1.83g. 2.The flake is a secondary flake with cortex along one lateral straight edge. The other edge is co…

Mesolithic to Neolithic (c. 7000 to 2350 BC) debitage: Two flakes knapped from flint. 1.The flake is knapped from a white/grey coloured flint which has a waxy texture. There is a small patch of white patina suggesting the flake has been knapped from a larger, older flake. It is trapezoidal with two vertical scars on the dorsal surface, and at least five scars on the ventral surface which are perpendicular to those on the dorsal surface. There is a small striking platform. It measures 22.45mm long, 15.58mm wide, 6.88mm thick and weighing 2.18g. 2.The flake is a sedonday flake wi…

Early Mesolithic to early Neolithic (8000 to 3500 BC) flint flake, which is an elongated triangle in plan and in section. The ventral surface has a small bulb of percussion, bulbar scar and conchoidal ripples. The dorsal surface has two vertical scars three other smaller scars. The laterial edges feel as if there are serrated, but this is probably due to damage rather than intention. The flint has a mottled dark to light grey colour. The flake measures 17.63mm in length, 11.26mm width, is 3.75mm thick and weighs 0.49g.
