Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Devon
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A Bronze Age scraper made from a casually re-used primary cortical waste flake of black and grey flint with white and grey inclusions. Both ends on the long axis have patches of short, semi abrupt scaled retouch to define working edges. The dorsal surface is entirely covered by buff coloured cortex; there is no evidence for a prepared striking platform. Dating from the early neolithic to the early Bronze Age 4000-1600 BC. Measurements: Length 37.74mm, Width 52.09mm, Thickness at bulb: 14.44mm, Thickness at distal end: 4.24mm, Weight 27.65g.

A flint flake of probable Neolithic - early Bronze Age (c. 4000-1601BC). It is sub-triangular in shape, and is has been struck off a tertiary flake as only a small amount of abraded nodule cortex remains at the distal end. At the proximal end is a large striking platform with a bulb of percussion on the ventral face. The ventral surface also has widely spaced conchoidal ripple marks. The dorsal face, has two negative flake scars from the removal of previous flakes in the form of blades or bladelets. Apparent small retouch on the dorsal face likely to be accidental damage rat…

A complete flint piece of Debitage of Neolithic to Bronze Age date (3450-800 BC). The lithic is sub-triangular in plan and concavo-convex in section. The proximal end retains cortex, while the distal end tapers to a point. The dorsal surface has three predominant negative scars, and semi-abrupt retouch to the left and right hand edges. The ventral surface is slightly concave with minor flaking to the distal end. The lithic retains some cortex and is therefore a secondary flake. The flint is grey in colour while the cortex is brown Length: 38.54mm, Width: 31.75mm, Thickness: …

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…

An uncertain lithic object of uncertain prehistoric date, likely Late Bronze Age to Iron Age in date. Description: The object is formed from irregularly shaped secondary flake, with a heated patination on the proximal end. The bulb of percusion and inded te bulbar scar is quite substantial. The flaking is however very irregular, the striking platform is flat but indented into a concave section of the ventral face. The retouch is situation at the proximal end of the flint. On one side has a short scaled semi-abrupt retouch creating a hollowed scraping edge which extends no more than…

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.
