Record ID: LEIC-6D15B6
Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Leicestershire
Workflow stage: Published
Neolithic flint arrowhead or thumbnail scraper. The light and mid-greyish-blue patina is in contrast to the unpatinated sub-parallel, semi-abrupt retouch along the left edge and across the mid section where it is broken. Based on patination, ridges, scars and form the blade itself is likely to have originally been Late Upper Palaeolithic or Mesolithic. However, due to the positioning of the later break and the retouched areas, it is possible this piece is an example of a quick arrowhead. The right edge has also been fine and abruptly flaked, but as the flint is so thin here it is h…

County: Isle of Wight
Workflow stage: Published
A complete Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age flint ''thumb-nail' or 'button' scraper (2700 BC-1601 BC). This scraper is sub-circular in plan, sub-triangular in cross-section and has been made on a tertiary flake. It has no bulb of percussion and the faint ripples on the ventral face indicate the striking end. About 60% of the dorsal face and about 50% of the ventral face has been retouched. The removals are scaled, abrupt and semi-abrupt. This scraper is semi-translucent and has a reddish tinge. There is no indication of any gloss. Length: 25.0mm; width: 21.6mm; thickness: 4…

Object type: AXEHEAD ROUGHOUT
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: East Sussex
Workflow stage: Published
Axehead roughout made on a piece of an irregularly shaped, natural flint nodule. This is curving and bears large areas of coarse flaking to produce a trapezoid section. Areas of thick cortex survive with a button-like projection at one point. An attempt to form an axe from this nodule appears to have been abandoned. The flint is opaque with a mottled grey colour.

A complete flint button scraper dating from the late Neolithic to early Bronze Age period, circa 2500-1500BC. With the exception of some small, recent nicks, the scraper survives intact. The scraper is almost D-shaped in plan view, with a straight edge formed from the striking platform. The cross section is sub triangular with two concave sides and the other convex. Cortex is present on the striking platform. The ventral face is smooth, shiny and unworked. The bulb of percussion is clearly visibly but there is no bulbul scar or concentric ripples. The dorsal face is heavily retouched …

A knapped late Neolithic scraper on debitage. In plan the scraper is an asymmetrical sub semi-circle. The dorsal and ventral faces are covered with a patina, but the dorsal face is has retouch around the lower curved edge, the distal end.
