Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Northamptonshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete flint Axehead of Early Neolithic date (3500-2500 BC). The lithic is sub-rectangular in plan, long and narrow with a slightly wider blade end. The lithic is bi-convex in section creating an ovate cross. Both surfaces have covering scaled flaking with the exception of the blade end which has a long-polished section running approximately 1/3 of the length of the object.  The butt end has been blunted and is slightly rounded with a long smooth negative scar extending on one side approximately 1/4 of the length of the object. There is a shallow negative scar on the blad…

County: Buckinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete flint Scraper of Neolithic date (3450-2100 BC). The lithic is sub-ovate in plan and bi-convex in section. The proximal end retains some cortex while the distal edge is curved. All edges with the exception of the proximal end have fine semi-abrupt retouch. The ventral surface is slightly convex with six negative scars and corresponding arises. The lithic retains some cortex and is therefore a secondary flake. The flint is dark/light grey in colour, the cortex is light brown in colour.

An incomplete flint Arrowhead of Bronze Age date (2500-1200 BC). The object is a barbed and tanged form and is sub-triangular in plan and concavo-convex in section. The object has two semi-circular notches removed by pressure flaking, on the proximal edge. The notches create a sub-rectangular tang, projecting between them. The left-hand barb is missing. The dorsal surface retains a large amount of cortex and has short, scaled flaking along all edges. The ventral surface has short, scaled flaking along all edges. The flint is dark grey in colour, the cortex is light brown in col…

Object type: CORE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Milton Keynes
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete flint probable Core Rejuvenation Flake of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The object is conical in shape and exhibits a single striking platform. There are multiple negative flake removals from blade production. The ventral surface is flat with two negative scars. All edges with the exception of the striking platform have rough semi-abrupt retouch and suggests the object is a utilised flake. The lithic retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flint is dark grey in colour. Length: 32.30mm, Width: 28.53mm, Thickness: 9.66mm, Weight: 10.8g.
