Pale grey flint with cortex possible knife fragment. A large flake with an apparently curved cutting edge, neatly truncated on one end where a flat and possibly smoothed surface of lentoid form appears. A large flake has been removed from behind the putative cutting edge by hard hammer strike from the dorsal aspect, possibly affording a thumb rest. Short abrupt retouch executed from the ventral aspect appears to follow the curving edge, its progress marked by the removal of a pale patinated surface to reveal the pale grey flint below – though a similar colour change also appears …

A Neolithic Greenstone axe presumed to be of Group VI (6), a product of the Langdale Pike axe factory. This example is an edge-polished flint axe, limited polishing it typical of the late Neolithic. It is covered in scaled and low angle flaking. The axe is pointed oval in cross-section and is broadly sub-rectangular, with a rounded polished cutting edge and a tapered, abraded and rounded butt. The Langdale greenstone axes were traded from a quarry on Langdale Pike, Cumbria, and their distribution around the Humber estuary is denser than anywhere except around the p…

Where this appears on the Wolds it is a local environmental effect and is very common. However, such patination is rare in the assemblage presented from Scotter, so this object may have been imported, perhaps in gravel or with chalk used to mar…

Dark brown flint with re-formed cortex, probable backed blade. A small flake with  a flat dorsal surface bearing re-forming buff cortex and a prominent bulb on the ventral side. The bulb has been trimmed by short abrupt retouch executed from the ventral aspect, to give a flat surface against which pressure might be brought to bear. The cutting edge was formed by very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect following convergent long edges. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC Length: 25.5mm, Width: 26.3mm, Thickness: 6.9mm, Weight: 4.54gms
