Object type: MULLER
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete worked stone or rubbing stone or 'muller' of unknown date, but probable prehistoric, given its findspot context. It is likely constructed from a fine-grained granite. The fragment is trapezoidal in plan. On one side it has been ground flat with a slight indentation, and the other side has been ground in a convex shape. The complete end has been rounded and shaped smooth which follow the lines of the sides. The broken edge appears to have been worked, so as to smooth out the damage. Measurements : length 69.53mm, width 54.2954.29mm, thickn…

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A flint axehead of Neolithic date, 133mm in length, struck from a mottled grey flint and bifacially worked. The axehead is symmetrical on two axes and has a lenticular cross section, flaring smoothly to a rounded cutting edge 58.7mm wide. There is a large area of damage to the front edge which may be post depositional in origin. There are no areas of polishing. A patch of white cortex is retained at the centre of one face.

County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A retouched flint flake of suggested middle Neolithic to early Bronze Age date c. 3300-1000 BC.  The secondary flake is elongated and sub-triangular in plan and cross-section; a small section of cortex surviving at the distal edge which has a chip at the terminal with fresh breaks suggesting more recent damage. The ventral surface is slightly concave with a pronounced bulb of percussion and raised rippling suggested hard hammer working. The dorsal surface has five removal scars with crude removals at the proximal end, possibly damage, but some finer …

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Complete end scraper of conventional form; made from a secondary, hard hammer struck flake of glossy black flint with some inclusions, steeply retouched at the distal end to form the semi-circular scraping edge, small patch of sandy coloured thin cortex extant to one lateral side, showing the outside curve of the flint nodule this was struck from. A very useful tool in the initial preparation of fresh hides for tanning, effective in removing the subcutaneous fat from just below the surface of the skin. Neolithic, 4,000 to 2,350 BC.

An incomplete worked flint knife of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date (c.4500-1500BC) Description: The object is broadly triangular in plan and trapezoid in cross section. It has been produced from a tertiary flake of translucent light brown flint. The mesal curve equally to form a point at the distal end but there is a clean break across the object so the proximal end is missing. One face is slightly flatter and has invasive, sub-parallel, low angle retouch. The other face is slightly convex and has covering,scaled, low angle retouch. Measurements: Leng…

A group of flakes from knapping debris dating to the late Mesolithic to early Neolithic period (c.8000-3300 BC). The group consists of 43 blades and flakes of flint of various raw materials, and three blades of chert, most likely originating from the Pennines. These objects are part of a collection of flints that have been recovered from three fields over a number of decades. The group includes arrowheads and flakes demonstrating the different phases of flint working. Objects from this group are recorded under the following PAS records: LVPL-F9B243; …

County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A complete knapped stone axehead of late Neolithic date, c. 2700 - 2300 BC.  The axehead is formed of a coarse brown stone. It is sub-ovate in plan; narrower at the butt end with sides which widen to the crescentic cutting edge. The axe has a humped profile and an irregular oval cross section. The surface of one side is pitted. The axehead is 81.2mm long, 44.6mm wide, 22.1mm thick and weighs 92.5g. It is impossible to source axes such as these without a detailed petrological analysis of the rock. This would allow the original source of the rock to be established.
