Title
Bronze Age debitage
Description
English: 33 pieces of flint debitage and 1 flake of chert debitage of probable later Bronze Age date, c. 1600-800 BC. The group appears to represent a variety of flint sources, including some pebble flint fragments and comprises of 1 chert (7.43g) and 1 flint (31.25g) primary flake, 19 secondary flakes (350.49g) and 13 tertiary flakes (89.72g). In general the knapping is very crude, producing large, crude flakes with removals struck from several directions and exhibiting characteristics suggestive of hard-hammer percussion, suggesting a date range in the later Prehistoric period. Part of a larger assemblage of predominantly later character: <a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890521" title="View details for DEV-D8A691">DEV-D8A691, </a><a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890387" title="View details for DEV-D42ACC">DEV-D42ACC, </a><a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890363" title="View details for DEV-C55E5C">DEV-C55E5C, </a><a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890352" title="View details for DEV-C51C2A">DEV-C51C2A, </a><a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890308" title="View details for DEV-C47982">DEV-C47982, </a><a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890287" title="View details for DEV-C40F02">DEV-C40F02, </a><a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890246" title="View details for DEV-C35C75">DEV-C35C75,</a><a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890163" title="View details for DEV-C26D2A">DEV-C26D2A </a>but which also includes a small group of potentially earlier material: <a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890537" title="View details for DEV-D910C7">DEV-D910C7</a>, <a href="https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/record/id/890552" title="View details for DEV-D96D65">DEV-D96D65</a>
