Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Doncaster
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint arrowhead dating from the later Neolithic (2900 BC - 2100 BC), It is sub triangular with a rounded base and does not fit neatly into any sub category of arrowhead. It is probably most similar to oblique arrowheads in Butler's Prehistoric Flintwork, but the base is convex rather than concave. The point of the arrowhead is formed at the proximal end. There is retouch from the dorsal face along both edges, and more abrupt retouch forming the base at the distal end. Some cortex survives on the dorsal face. There is no working from the ventral face which is concave. The flint is mo…

Object type: RETOUCHED FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Nottinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Neolithic flint tool; a retouched blade which has been utilised for cutting. The flint is sub rectangular with abundant retouch on both sides and the distal end. The retouch is semi-abrupt. The blade has a double dorsal ridge which gives it extra strength. The distal end may have been used as a scraper, the edges were used for cutting, but the object is not a knife as there is no retouch on the ventral face. Denticulates have also been knapped on the left side which would allow the flint to be used for heavy duty cutting. These may have been a later addition. This multi purpose tool…
