Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Powys
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A long thin lithic implement, probably a proto awl of Mesolithic to Neolithic date (4000 - 3000 BC). It does demonstrate some uncontrolled fractures, probably due to movement in the soil. The flint is a light grey with patches of white running through. It may have suffered some patination due to soil conditions. It is roughly triangular in shape, narrowing to a point. Little evidence of retouch is present along the edges of the tool. It measures 46.33mm length, 18.11mm width, 9.71mm thick and weighs 6.0 grams.

Three waste flakes / debitage of Mesolithic to Neolithic dating (4000 to 3000 BC). All three are irregular in shape. One consists of primary debitage, with more than 50% of the surface being covered by the cortex (outer rind). The other two are tertiary debitage, with little or no cortex (outer rind) present. Evdience for working consists of a clear bulb of percussion and controlled conchoidal fracturing. There is evidence of uncontrolled fracturing and plough roll, probably from movement in the soil. Together they weigh 13.1 grams. 1. Measures 42.02mm length, 19.26mm width, 10.16mm t…

A core rejuvenation flake struck from poor quality flint of Late Mesolithic to Early Neolithic date (6500 to 2900 BC). It is subrectangular in plan. The ventral (upper) face demonstrates a series of ridges, with a hinge fracture present. The dorsal (lower) face demonstrates a bulb of percussion and striking platform. It has been taken from a core, for the production of blades, as demonstrated from a series of parallel flint scars at the proximal end of the flake. There is evidence of uncontrolled flaking scars along the edge of the flake, which are probably the result of post depositi…
