Object type: BLADE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Pembrokeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Core rejuvenation blade, most likely to be of Neolithic date (c. 4000-2500BC). Made of flint. Length = 79.0mm; width = 28.0mm; thickness – 15.0mm; weight = 25.3g. The blade is struck from a blade core with the intention to refresh the striking platform of the core to enable further blades to be removed from it. Blades from such a core could have been retouched and made into scrapers, knives, or other tools.

Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Pembrokeshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Later Neolithic flint chisel arrowhead of c. 2500 – 2100BC date The arrowhead is complete and is bi-facially worked but with more pressure-flaked retouch on the dorsal surface. The arrowhead is widest at the cutting edge with an edge formed from the flaking and has no secondary working. Ripples on the ventral surface indicate that the cutting edge would have been on the side of the flake, thinner side at the distal end. The flint is non-cortical and unpatinated grey-brown. Dimensions: length: 29.6mm; width: 30.7mm; maximum thickness: 5.2mm; weight: 3.2g
