Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete flint fabricator, 54.6mm in length, struck from a brown flint and of potential Mesolithic to early Bronze Age date. The tool has a triangular cross section and is worked on the dorsal surface only, with abrupt scaled retouch along the sides. The distal tip has low angle retouch to define a wedge shape with a rounded end. The ventral surface is unworked and the tool has broken across its width.

It looks to be a flint implement, but due to some retouching, may possibly have been used as a scraper. The dark colour of the flint, and its workmanship suggest that it is likely of Neolithic origin. You can see the cracking ripples on its ventral surface, as well as two patches of cortex, which suggests that it was originally a tertiary flake. It has a dark grey-black patina on 90% of its surface, and the remaining 10% cortex is of a mid white-brown colour. Dimensions: Longest length(from end to end), 34mm. Longest width (from side to side), 22mm.  Weight: 5.91g.

A piece of Neolithic debitage, possibly indicating blade production dating to, c. 4000-2400 BC. The object is worked from a tertiary flake of light grey flint with occasional medium grey patches. The flake is sub-triangular in plan and sub-triangular to trapezoidal in cross section.  At least four negative removal scars are present on the dorsal face, some running in a linear fashion parallel to each other. The ventral face is almost perfectly flat. The longest side of the triangle has possible retouch, suggesting it may have been used as a scraping …

A thumbnail flint end scraper or piercer of Mesolithic to Neolithic date (10,000 BC - 2400 BC). It is formed on a secondary flake of dark brown flint with a small section of cortex on the distal face. The proximal end is a straight edge with evidence retouch and damage. There is some retouch on the right edge, while the left edge has been left with a concave section where it has likely broken during manufacture.    Measurements: The flint is 30.4mm long, 22.5mm wide and 4.96mm thick and weighs 3.48g.
