Record ID: PUBLIC-803028
Object type: FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An edge trimmed flake, grey and brown in colour, which has been uni-facially retouched and has been expediently made.
The left margin of the ventral face exhibits discontinuous retouch with a low angle and is of edge type extent which gives a serrated edge.

Record ID: PUBLIC-7DE5F1
Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An end scraper, medium grey in colour with cream inclusions, which has been expediently made and unifacially retouched.
The distal end exhibits an undercutting continuous retouch with a semi-abrupt angle and is of edge type in extent. The retouch morphology of this margin is of sub-parallel type.
There is also discontinuous, edge retouch to the left margin which is of low angle, thus giving a serrated cutting edge.
Extensive cortex covering of the right margin aids in comfort when handling.
