Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Approximately half on an unidentified object. The object is plano-convex, solid and an oval shape in plan. There is an hour-glass shaped hole through the centre of the object where it is currently broken. The convex surface is covered in tight rows of linear marks which could be the result of filing, or perhaps the mirror image of the mould it was cast in. The object looks like a miniature verson of a polished stone prehistoric macehead.

Object type: DAGGER
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
Incomplete copper alloy knife, or dagger. The dagger is leaf shaped, slender and roughly a pointed oval in cross-section. Either side of the blade there are developed bevels; two either side of the main ridge angling down towards the blade edge. The blade tapers towards the tip, which is now flat through wear rather than being pointed. The flat tip is well patinated, having the same patination as the blade body. The edges of the blade are damaged in places with small concave 'nicks', and are again covered with the same patination as the blade tip and body. The tang is roughly rectangu…

County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Two lumps of probable copper alloy casting waste. Both items have irregular and very worn surfaces. The larger piece measures 33mm in length, 26mm in width and 9mm in thickness. The piece has an irregular flat base and a slightly concave inner with a raised crescentric lip. The lip is in the form of a channel, and may have been formed by either pouring into or spilling out of the casting chamber. The flattish base would support this too. The smaller piece measures 24mm in length, 14mm in width, and 8mm in thickness.
