Object type: END SCRAPER
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An early Neolithic end scraper of a dark, almost black flint. It is beautifully shaped, curving around thickly to reach a short straight side. This side has a triangular cut in it, presenting a small separate platform which is the only asymmetry in the object. All three large removals as well as retouch removals are visible, and the object is in very good condition, though there is some patinisation on the ventral face.

Neolithic polished axe Dimensions: 180 x 76 x 44mm A large, heavy and highly polished example, with a broad, curved cutting edge which is sharp and undamaged. The butt is rounded and retains some residual flake scars as do the lateral edges, which are rounded. The surface of the axe is patinated and stained a cream colour, with some iron streaks, probably from plough contact. Unusually the residual flake scars are paler in colour than the main surface and also have some traces of a black deposit in the edges of the scars. Axes of this quality and size may not have been made for use bu…

Neolithic polished axe (142 x 56 x 28mm). Part polished flint axe, stained buff brown over (probably) pale grey flint. Polish is confined to the cutting edge which has some minor ancient damage, though some slight rubbing extends to the arrises on one face and to one lateral edge. The remainder of the surface is neatly finished by flaking. The lateral edges are fairly straight and lead to a narrow blunt butt. c.4000 - c.2300 BC

It is undamaged and has a rounded and still sharp cutting edge at its broadest point, a narrow rounded butt with a slight facet and facetted lateral edges. The whole surface is stained brown with a few coarse-grained inclusions are visible as greyer areas. It is probably Late Neolithic, dating from around…
