Object type: BORER
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Kent
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint borer likely of Neolithic to Bronze Age date. Description: The borer is sub-triangular in plan with three large and dressed striking platform. There is extensive short scaled low angle retouch along the mesal (sides) of the two dorsal faces, with striking coming in from multiple angles, primarily from the dorsal faces on the right side and from the ventral face on the left. The point appears to remain intact although may have been reworked.. The bulb of percussion and the conchoidal fractures are very pronounced which suggests hard hammer striking. The flint is heavily mott…

A flint rounded scraper uncertain date but likely Neolithic or Bronze Age datec. 4000-1000BC. Description:The scraper has been produced from a utilised secondary flake, with short semi-abrupt scaled angled retouch going through the light grey-white blue patination. The bulb of percussion, conchoidal fracturing and flaking is also substantial and pronounced indicative of hard hammer technology. The flint is dark grey-black where patination has yet to begin. Measurements:37.12mm long, 31.25mm wide, 7.69mm thick and 9.56g in weight.
