Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint projectile point, spearhead, laurel leaf or perhaps a knife, probably of Neolithic date 4000 - 2200 BC. It is D shaped in plan, with cortex on the left side, and invasive bifacial working. The dorsal face is concave with invasive, parallel, low angle retouch round the curved right side. The ventral face is less finely worked. The unworked left edge could have been utilised as a backed blade, but the tool is more likely to be a Neolithic knife or point. The object is 77.2mm long, 40.2mm wide, 8.3mm thick and weighs 32.82g.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete and damaged polished stone axehead of Neolithic date, 4000 - 2200 BC. The axe has a narrow btt with is trunctaed by a break. The sides are straight and flaring to the convex cutting edge, making the axe broadly triangular in plan. It is an irregular pointed oval in cross-section, and more lozenge shaped in cross-section at the break. The surface of the axe is flaked but many of these removals are probably later damage, as there are small areas of the polished surface surviving at the cutting end on both faces. The axe may only have been polished at the cutting end. The st…
