Object type: CORE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A group of four flint cores dating from the Mesolithic or Neolithic periods. All have some cortex remaining and evidence of numerous multi-directional blade removals. They are formed on opaque grey flint. One piece may have been discarded quite early because there are imperfections in the flint.

Object type: CORE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A worked, roughly circular, lithic core of Mesolithic or Neolithic date. This core is not flint, but chert, and was probably imported into Lincolnshire, possibly from North Yorkshire. It has had blades removed from it in different directions. It is 31.7mm long, 29.3mm wide and 15.5mm thick. It weighs 11.4gm.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Calderdale
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint scraper dating from the late Neolithic period, about 2500 BC - 2100 BC. It is an oval flake of opaque grey flint with cortex surviving on part of the proximal end. The flake was formed by blows from two striking platforms; the first from the distal end which is now worked, and the second from the end with surviving cortex, which is thus described as the proximal end. The distal end has been worked into a wide scraper with high quality invasive shallow retouch. There is evidence of both percussion and pressure flaking.

Object type: BURIN
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Doncaster
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint multi functional tool, a burin and cutting edge formed on a primary flake of tan coloured flint. The dorsal face is covered with cortex except where the working has removed it at the distal end. The right side has semi abrupt retouch along it to form a knife. More invasive retouch at the distal end forms the burin point. The proximal end is snapped. The flint is not patinated. It is Mesolithic in date probably.

A Mesolithic flint possible microlith. It is a narrow blade which is triangular in section and rectangular in plan. There is abrupt retouch at the distal end. This interrupts the milky patina to reveal translucent grey flint. The patina is also damaged at the proximal end but does not appear to be worked.

A small piece of debitage from flint working, probably dating from the Neolithic period 3500-2100BC. This dark material is Derbyshire chert, a hard variety of quartz that, like flint, can be broken to form sharp edges. It is not local to the find spot and must have been imported before working.

Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Rotherham
Workflow stage: Published
A leaf shaped flint arrowhead dating from the early Neolithic period, 3500-2500BC. It is flat on one side and convex on the other. A small piece has been chipped from one side; this chip displays patination and happened at some time in antiquity.There is invasive shallow retouch on the dorsal face, but little working on the ventral. The flint is patinated to white. Similar arrowheads are illustrated in Butler, 2005, Prehistoric Flintwork, page 124.
