Object type: SPINDLE WHORL
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: North Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead possible spindle whorl. Cast globular or bun-shaped whorl with opposed flat sides and with a slightly off-centre square moulded aperture of c.8mm square; patinated, with a cut by the hole on one side which might represent a tying notch. The thick patina points to an object of some age. If indeed a whorl – the square hole would be an aberrant feature – the spindle hole size would fall between the ranges accepted for earlier and later parts of the early medieval period. Whorls in other materials acquired lathe-turned globular forms from about the 13th century, which migh…

A cast copper alloy ring or handle of uncertain date. The object is made of a circular sectioned bar that is bent into a half circle in plan. Both terminals are marked by slightly ragged transverse breaks so that the original circuit is not possible to determine. The object is 57.7mm long, and has a diamater of c.6.8mm. it weighs 24.01 grams. This might have been a handle or dervie from a copper alloy ring.

Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete lead-alloy gaming piece or weight of uncertain date. The object is sub-conical with a base that has an uneven concave hollow at its centrebase and tapering sides to a rounded top. It appears undecorated. The object is 18.8mm tall, 23.2mm in diameter and weighs 41.50 g. Lead objects such as this are common metal detector finds but are rare from excavated contexts. This means that the dating of lead objects of this general type is problematic, and their use is invariably uncertain. Similarly shaped objects are known from Viking contexts and are interpreted as weig…

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Wakefield
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A possible chert scraper of Mesolithic to Bronze Age, 9000 BC - 1000 BC. The possible tool is formed on a tertiary flake of black chert with a dorsal ridge. It has possible retouch on all edges which is abrupt, sub-parallel and short. The removals are not particularly uniform, casting some doubt about their intentionality. Length: 50.57mm Width: 36.33mm Thickness: 11.1mm Weight: 26.96g The thickness of the flake and abruptness of the retouch rules out use as an arrowhead, but it would be a functional scraper. The findspot may ha…

Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Calderdale
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A possible burin formed on a crude blade of white flint. Unknown date, Mesolithic to Bronze Age (10,000 - 1000 BC). It is unclear where the flint was struck from. The faces are uneven, and most have a stepped termination scar. One end of the blade is much narrower and thinner. One side of this projection has short, abrupt, sub-parallel retouch, possibly to form a burin. There appears to be a removal across the end of the spur from the retouched edge. The tool is 38.1mm long, 16.3mm wide, 8.2mm thick. 3.3g. Burins are typically mesolithic, but the reuse of a crude blade i…
