Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Incomplete Middle-Late Bronze Age copper alloy small tanged chisel, with a rectangular section (maximum dimensions 12 x 4mm) and with pitted flat faces and sides. The tang tapers to a point at one end and the object is broken at other end, with the cutting-edge missing. The length of the remaining portion is 59mm. Comparable with an example from the Sparkford Hill Hoard (Somerset) (Inventaria Archaeologica (1958) GB.46 no. 3). The object may date from c. 1200 - c. 1000 BC, or possibly a little later.

Object type: SOCKETED AXEHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Cumbria
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lower part of a cast cu-alloy socketed axe, probably of a Irish bag-shaped axe, dating from the Later Bronze Age, i.e. c.1000-800BC. Only the main body and blade of the axe remain: the mouth and loop are missing. The mouth would have been rectangular with one small loop at the side. The main body of the axe is undecorated, and the axe looks well worn and resharpened. The casting seams at the sides were flatted and smoothed. Irish or bag-shaped axes are one type of Late Bronze Age socketed axes: they are quite short/stumpy and are seldom decorated with ribs or a more elaborate pattern.

Cast copper alloy blade from a palstave or Middle Bronze Age flanged axe, sub-triangular in plan and sub-rectangular in section, tapering to the blade terminal. The blade is narrow tapering and the axe is narrow and unlooped and the butt is broken. The axe has a well defined, rounded stop-ridge on both sides rising at right angles to the septum. The side flanges are too damaged to allow definition of their shape or height. The blade is narrow and trapezoidal, widening gently to the cutting edge, with no added flare to the tips. The object is in fair condition with a brown patina…

Object type: AWL
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Hertfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A copper-alloy awl of probable late Bronze Age date. The artefact is of rectangular section, on one side tapering to a point, on the other to a wedge-shaped terminal. The side ending in the wedge has been bent halfway along, forming an angle of approximately 45 degrees. It seems likely, given the regular nature of the bend, that it represents a deliberate adaptation of the tool. The artefact has a dark blueish-green patina and is corroded. It measures 66.3mm long, 5.6mm wide (at the centre point) and weighs 6.53g.

Brown flint with cortex, and heavy patina on one side. Debitage. Struck flint bearing four or more conchoidal fractures from removal of flakes with a hard hammer, an operation which post-dated the accumulation of a heavy patina on one unworked face. Though conceivably intended as an awl, this object bears no discernible trace of use as such. Suggested date: Possibly Bronze Age, 2150-800BC. Length: 50.62mm, Width: 30.49mm, Thickness: 15.3mm, Weight: 13.12gms.

Mid grey flint with cortex on one side, patinated on the other. Possible Scraper (identified by finder). A thumbnail scraper probably made from a naturally-formed pot-lid flake; cortex appears on one side, and patination on the ventral surface. The patina is interrupted by light, possibly pressure-flaked, retouch of about half the edge of flake, on the ventral surface only. Suggested date: Early Bronze Age, 2150-1500 BC.

Dark grey (outer) and pale brown (inner) flint with cortex Possible scraper. A sub-triangular flint chip with hard hammer retouch along one edge and (probably) on the striking platform.
