Pale grey flint probable leaf arrowhead. A thin ogival flake with two broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and  with a bulb at the butt end of a lightly rippled ventral surface. The finder kindly suggests a Mesolithic date; this reporter would consider a Neolithic date more probable for this object class.

Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Patinated flint lithic implement. A curved L-shaped flint hook with two broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a bulbar ventral surface. Abrupt retouch executed from the ventral aspect formed a concave hollow on one side. The appearance of retouch from the dorsal side is perhaps the misleading result of edge-on impacts against the longer side of the object. A dense white patina suggests it subsequently endured exposure to a calcareous environment. The concave form is sometimes regarded as indicating use as a ‘shaft straightener’. It is suggested by flint research…

Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: MEDIEVAL

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Copper alloy vessel fragment, as kindly suggested by the finder. A triangular section curving bar, expanding to an everted thickened rounded terminal at one end, broken at the other. Subsequently fiercely abraded, with more damage to the outer side of its curved form than elsewhere. The finder kindly suggests a function as a detached vessel handle. This reporter would deem the triangular section and keeled appearance more likely to point to a vessel leg. There is no trace of sooting to suggest its use on the hearth, so, if this is its leg, the putative vessel may have been an item of f…

Pale grey flint barbed and tanged arrowhead. A small V-shaped point with covering angled scalar retouch, retaining most of its barbs and a squared tang, of plano-convex section.
