Igneous rock cobble, probably greenstone but awaiting geological comment by Roger Taylor. The cobble is circular in plan and ovate in profile and section, with flakes having been removed over one side of the upper surface and a flattened base, suggesting hammerstone and pestle use. Such pieces do turn up on domestic sites but not in any quantity compared to mullers and rubbers. On these objects the waterworn cobble surfaces are all fresh and unweathered, appropriate for selection from a beach during the Neolithic. The beach selection would ensure hard enduring pieces. It is quite poss…

Pottery base sherd with smooth exterior and uneven interior, both with dimples in the surface where large inclusions have eroded out of the matrix.
