Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A later Neolithic flint arrowhead of oblique type struck from a tertiary flake of brown flint, c. 3000-2100 BC. The cross section is asymmetrical and triangular with a flat and a convex face. One long edge has retouch along what appears to be the line of a break to refine a blunted edge running to the sharp point. The base has long low angle sub parallel retouch and is slanted.

Object type: FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Neolithic knapped flake, c.4000-2000 BC. It is a sub rectangular section of a longer flake, with bulb of percussion at one end.

There is a possible notch on the left distal edge.

County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A late Neolithic-Bronze Age ovate flint scraper, c.2000-1000 BC. This scraper has a distal end with a long, low angle sub parallel retouch to define a working edge. The proximal end is covered in cortex has no evidence of a prepared striking platform, indicating that the flake was removed directly from the nodule and worked as a secondary flake. The flint is mottled dark grey.

Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete middle Neolithic to early Bronze Age knapped lithic implement, c. 2700-1600 BC. The implement is an arrowhead, possibly linked to transverse or chisel types. It is formed from a tertiary flake which is sub-triangular with a very slight S-curve to one edge. It is bifacially worked with invasive stepped semi-abrupt and low angle retouch present across the dorsal and ventral surfaces. The flint is a mid-grey colour.

County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Fragment of a Neolithic knapped stone axehead, c.4000-2500 BC. The axe is made from white flint with greyish inclusions. The axehead appears to have been partially polished after knapping, then received later damage along the cutting edge, where flakes have chipped off. The axe is slender and lenticular in cross section.  For a more complete example, see ESS-BDF267.

A Mesolithic obliquely blunted broad blade flint microlith, 7000-4000 BC. This microlith is struck from a tertiary flake of light grey flint. It is of Clark's (1934) Group A with a convex curved edge, which has been blunted using short abrupt retouch for a little over half of its length.

Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete Neolithic flaked axe head, c.4000-2300 BC. This axehead is made from cream-coloured flint or chert with some iron staining. There are no patches of cortex remaining. The shape is asymmetrical, with one long edge slightly more bulbous than the other, which is straight. In profile, the axe is reasonably similar and balanced. It is very similar in shape to DOR-3F1ECB. The sides appear unfinished and have some post-depositional damage. It is possible that this axehead was to be ground and polished, as it is missing the finer flakes that refine these edges.

Late Neolithic/early Bronze Age scraper, c.3000-1500 BC This scraper is made from a secondary struck flake of mottled grey flint with thin, worn, pale sandy coloured cortex on one face.  The steep retouch is confined to the distal end forming the neat semi-circular scraping edge and the sharper (non-cortical) side, presumably to slightly blunt it. There appears to be a notch struck into one side.
