Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Bradford
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete flint barbed and tanged arrowhead dating to the Bronze Age, 2400 BC - 1000 BC. It is formed on a tertiary flake of grey flint with brown inclusions. It is broadly sub-triangular in plan with the tip missing, and is lentoid in cross section. It is broadly symmetrical in shape, with two notches chipped into the base of the flint to separate the barbs and the tang; both barbs are still intact. The tang and barbs all have square ends. Both faces are covered with scaled, low-angle retouch. Length: 35.21mm Width: 33.87mm Thickness: 5.69m…

A flint chunk, possibly minimally worked into a denticulate, of possible Bronze Age or Iron Age date, 2200 BC - 200 BC. It is formed on a secondary flake of patinated mottled light grey flint, and has much cortex surviving, covering all but 2 faces. The chunk is a knobbly nodule, with two struck faces at right angles to each other. A notch in the centre of the right side of the larger flat face could be intentional, with short, scalar, abrupt retouch, but could also be natural damage. There are also some removals from the distal end of the large flat face, on the right, but these …

A flint flake, possibly a utilised flake, or retouched flake possibly of late Neolithic to Bronze Age date, 3300 BC - 600 BC. It is formed on a secondary flake of dark grey flint, and is oval, wider than it is long. There is cortex on the distal right side of the dorsal face. There are a few previous removal scars and possible platform preparation on the dorsal face, but the flake otherwise appears to be as struck. The curved distal end may have been utilised as a knife or cutting tool. There is possible exceedingly fine retouch, but this is so slight that it is pro…

A flint thumbnail scraper dating from the late Neolithic or early Bronze Age periods, about 2400-1400 BCE. It is formed on a secondary flake. The flint is translucent brown with some small patches of light grey patina forming. There is a prominent shallow bulb of percussion, indicative of soft hammer striking, and conchoidal ripple marks. Half of the left hand side is covered in cortex. The distal edge and the remainder of the left hand side has significant areas of removal on the dorsal face, in the form of abrupt, long, scaled retouch. The object has a length of 2…

A flint thumbnail scraper dating from the late Neolithic or early Bronze Age periods, about 2400-1400 BCE. The flint has a covering white patina. There is no distinct striking platform – this is possibly broken off or removed by further working– but there is a prominent shallow bulb of percussion on the ventral face, indicative of soft hammer striking. There is a substantial area of cortex covering about one third of the dorsal face from the right hand misal edge. The opposite edge and the distal edge have areas of significant removal in the form of abrupt short scaled…
