Object type: MICROBURIN
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A pale grey fragment of a flint bladelet, probably a proximal microburin and of Mesolithic date. The fragment is rectangular in plan, with trapezoidal cross section and a notch on one side of one end which allowed the bladelet to be broken for the production of a microlith.

A complete flint microburin, debitage from flint knapping, of Mesolithic date  (c. 10,000 BC - 4000 BC). Description: The object is broadly triangular in plan and cross section. It is made from a secondary flake of medium brown translucent flint with cream coloured cortex along the left side. It has a flat proximal end with striking platform and a right diagonally-pointing distal end, snapped to create a transverse end. Short, abrupt retouching is visible on the right edge from the dorsal face and some on the ventral.  Measurements: T…

County: Worcestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A complete flint probable microburin dating to the Meslothic period (c. 8000 BC - 4000 BC). The object is teardrop shaped in plan and struck from a secodary flint flake of opaque greyish-white flint. The ventral face has a clear bulb of percussion. The dorsal face (not pictured) is slightly concave and retains some cortex along one long edge. There does not appear to be any sign of retouch.  Overall dimensions: 22mm in length, 13mm in width and 5mm in thickness.

A flint microburin of Mesolithic date, debitage from microlith making, dating from about 8000 BC - 4000 BC. It is the proximal end of a tertiary blade which has been snapped on an angle at the distal end. There is short, sub-parallel, abrupt retouch on the right side forming a notch. The microburin is 10.3mm long, 6.8mm wide and 2mm thick. It is less than 0.1g.

Object type: MICROBURIN
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Kirklees
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A flint probable microburin of the Mesolithic period, 10,000 BC - 4000 BC. It is a tertiary blade fragment of cream coloured opaque patinated flint. Only the proximal end of the blade survives. Some working on the right edge may have been to encourage the blade to snap where desired, forming a microburin, the discarded proximal end of a blade. It is 9.3mm long, 10.1mm wide and 2.2mm thick. 0.2g.
