Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Rotherham
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint transverse arrowhead dating from the late Neolithic period. It is probably a chisel type similar to those on page 159 of Butler. It has semi abrupt retouch at the distal end, and working at the proximal end to allow hafting. Cortext survives on the right side and the rest of the flint is partially patinaed. It is a light brown colour.

County: Doncaster
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A retouched flint flake, probably dating to the Neolithic period. The flake is 40.03mm long, 33.66mm wide, 6.33mm thick and weighs 8.41gm The flake is made of opaque brown flint. The retouching is clearly visible on the distal edge of the dorsal face of the flake. On the ventral face of the flake percussion waves are visible although there is no immediately visible bulb, suggesting the flake may have snapped.

A flint tool; a utilised flake probably dating from the Mesolithic or Neolithic period of about 8300 BC - 2100BC. The flake is formed of mottled grey and tan opaque flint. It is semi-circular in plan and sub rectangular in section. Edge damage on the curved left side suggests that the flake was utilised as a cutting tool, though it is not formally retouched.

Object type: INTAGLIO
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A blue glass intaglio, or more properly, a cameo, since the design is in relief. It dates from the late Post Medieval to Modern period. This decorative item was designed to be inserted into a ring or brooch or other personal ornament. The oval setting is made of bright blue translucent glass and has been made in a mould. This is evident from the concave reverse and the rounded edges to the design. It is decorated with a beetle, perhaps a scarab depicted from above sitting on a leaf. The background has fine horizontal lines across the field - again indicative of a fairly recent da…

Object type: PENDANT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A possible flint pendant of unknown date formed from a primary flake. The object is sub rectangular in shape. There is a perforation in one corner of the object which may have been deliberately created. The edges of the flake are rough and uneven and only a minute amount of retouch is visible. There is no evidence to suggest that it has been used as a tool. The cortex of the object is dark brown speckled with white. The opposite side is opaque with an area of light grey surrounded by an area of dark brown, with the outer edges being medium to light brown in colour. There is not enough…

Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Rotherham
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint core fragment with evidence of narrow blade removals which suggest a Mesolithic date but may also be early Neolithic in date (about 8300-3500 BC). The core is formed from patinated flint and has been worked on at least three faces. Cortex survives on one face and there are blade removal scars on all the remaining faces. It is white including patches of buff coloured cortex. Examples of cores may be found in Butler's Prehistoric Flintwork, pages 87 and 120. Length: 32.5mm; Width: 24.9mm; Thickness: 15.8mm; Weight: 14.46g

County: Rotherham
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Mesolithic or Neolithic flint waste flake. The flake is sub triangular; having a slightly tapered point, a rounded angle and, another, slight right angle. Two edges have been retouched with abrupt and semi-abrupt removals creating thin edges, suggesting that it may have been utilised as a scraper. The flake is coloured white with flecks medium grey near the surface. Please see Butler's Prehistoric Flintwork. Length: 27.95mm; Width: 25.9mm; Thickness: 3.6mm; Weight: 2.94g

A flint tool with no obvious striking platform dating from the Neolithic period. The small worked flake is sub triangular and has multiple arises on the dorsal face from previous removals. The left side shows evidence of denticulate removal towards the tip and has been snapped down the side; the object may quite possibly have been embedded in wood and notched in order to break it. The concave base shows evidence of semi-abrupt retouching, probably to aid hafting. The ventral face is smooth and only slightly concave in the centre, from the base to the tip. The object is an opaque mediu…

Workflow stage: Published
A Neolithic flint axe, of Manby's Flaked rough-out type, with a thin tapering butt. The object has an elongated ovoid shape; it is less bulbous on one face while the other face has a large raised lump with signs of flaking. In section it is D shaped with the bar being convex too, but less so than the loop. The butt is narrower than the rest of the axe, tapers and then has a squared off end. The sides are convex. The axe is an opaque pale orange and grey colour and cortex is visible on the butt. There are neat removals at the working edge. Length: 149.1mm; Width: 53mm; Thickness: …

A flint leaf shaped arrowhead which is 45.1mm long, 20.5mm wide and 5.7mm thick. The flint is mottled mid grey. The arrowhead has semi-invasive retouch on all but one edge and is a kite shaped partially-flaked arrowhead (Butler, 2005, "Prehistoric Flintwork", page 123) dating from the Early or middle Neolithic. The ventral face is only retouched at one side of the tip. The dorsal face is neatly flaked with a facet on each side and a central flake removed from the proximal end creating a pleasing symmetrical design. There is semi-invasive retouch on all edges except the centre of the l…
