Abstract:
The first author asks (with reference to Isleham material) 'Use-wear analysis of surface material - can it really be done?' and concludes that use-damage does often survive ploughing and may with care be examined by low-power microscopy. The second author in 'The Norfolk peat fens: an extensive view' attempts a broad macroscopic assessment of the 15 500 pieces of worked flint and stone collected from 370 sites: results are discussed in terms of settlement distribution, raw material, and fine objects. The amount of cortex cover is analysed and the apparent absence of floorstone flint investigated. There is a strong impression that flint was obtained at marginal cost in the course of normal traffic from flint area to fen edge.
