Record ID: NLM-4B38C5
Object type: POLISHER
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Stone polisher, as kindly identified by the finder. A sub-spherical water-rolled pebble with a pale grey surface and smooth overall, with a restricted very smooth zone of length 27mm. The use of such objects as craft tools is likely until the end of the early medieval period, though the finder opines the find-spot to be especially productive of material dated to the Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age. Suggested date: possibly Bronze Age, 2350-800 BC. Length: 45.7mm, Width: 41.8mm, Thickness: 29.6mm, Weight: 77.01gms
