Object type: UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Prehistoric copper alloy object fragment? 15mm in length, 13mm wide and 4mm thick with a weight of 3.07grams. The object is sub rectangular in form and rectangular (rhomboid) in cross section, with each face having a rounded central ridge. The object has a tri-lobed form with three incomplete shafts, one of which is slightly longer, all are broken off. The patina suggests a great age, but function is uncertain.
It was found in the same location as two prehistoric metal fragments, (see LEIC-544574 and LEIC-542023) suggesting it may be this old and could have been gathered for re-w…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Late Neolithic flint arrowhead, 31mm in length, 28mm wide and 5mm thick with a weight of 3.75grams.

It has fine fine re-touch along one, possibly both long edges.
It is very similar to CORN-C9B83D.

Record ID: LEIC-546CDC
Object type: MOUNT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Medieval or Post Medieval copper alloy mount? 49mm in length, 48mm wide and 5mm thick with a weight of 39.63g.
The object consists of a rectangular (rhomboid) plate which is attached to a hollow circular cross sectioned shaft, 9 mm in diameter. The surface of the mount is decorated with an embossed S shaped motif, possibly a swan or griffin? in an incised border. The plate has a small sub rectangular cut out on its upper edge nearest the shaft. The shaft also appears to be incomplete at both ends, making a function harder to determine.

Object type: AXE
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Bronze age copper alloy axe blade fragment, 27mm in length, 14mm wide and 6mm thick with a weight of 3.14g.
The object is sub triangular in form and cross section and consists of a corner of a blade of a probable socketed axe. It has a slightly curved and damaged blade, 1mm thick at its tip. The fragment then widens out and is solid, but in a very damaged state. It was found in the same location as other prehistoric metal fragments (see LEIC-544574 and LEIC-54F15A) suggesting it may have been gathered for re-working?
