Record ID: SUR-656631
Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A retouched tertiary flake of dark grey brown flint, probably of later Neolithic to Bronze Age date. The flake is trapezoidal with a projecting point on one corner of the distal edge. This edge has short abrupt retouch along its length with what appears to be a small burin removal at the tip of the point to refine it for use as a piercing or engraving tool.

County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A curved flint blade of probable Bronze Age date, 53.8mm in length and struck from a secondary flake of grey flint. The distal end has been worked into a triangular point with short semi-abrupt retouch on both sides. The flake has cortex on both faces at the proximal end suggesting that it derived from a nodule with a thick cortical layer.

A small piercer or multi-tool made from a semi circular fragment of mottled grey-brown flint. One side is slightly concave and one is convex, both have patches of short low angle to semi abrupt retouch struck from both sides to refine working edges for scraping; the distal end has an offset triangular point which has been retouched for use as a piercer.

A triangular flint blade of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date, 43.7mm in length and struck from a patinated grey flint with a small patch of cortex on the distal end. The right side of the long edge towards the distal point has been worked with short abrupt retouch suggesting possible use as a piercer and there is a second patch of retouch around a notch on the left side long edge, suggesting that the tool may have been multi functional. This retouch has clearly broken through the blue-grey patination suggesting later prehistoric re-use of a much earlier struck blade, pos…

County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A secondary flake of dark grey brown flint which appears to have been removed by hard hammer from a nodule and re-used as a tool, probably in the later prehistoric period. The distal end is triangular with steep sides defined by long and short semi-abrupt retouch into a working point. The right side long edge has scaled low angle retouch on the ventral face to refine a cutting edge suggesting the tool may have had a variety of functions.

A large flint piercer or multi tool made from a fragment of a nodule of mottled grey flint, 61.2mm in length and of Bronze Age date. The tool is triangular with a long tip which has been worked into a point using abrupt scaled retouch along one side. The proximal end has a patch of long abrupt parallel retouch which has removed the cortex and created a scraping edge, suggesting multiple functions for the tool.
