Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Fieldwalking during the mid-1980s at Pyecombe, north of Brighton, recovered over 9000 pieces of worked flint dating from the Mesolithic, Neolithic and early Bronze Age. In 1990 a series of test-pits excavated across the area found that the site had been almost completely destroyed by ploughing. However, two trenches revealed possible evidence for flint quarrying. During further survey work, flint axe roughouts and preforms were found in such numbers as to indicate that this was a major Neolithic axe production site. It is becoming clear from other work nearby that this is just one of a number of similar sites occupying Clay-with-Flints outcrops in this area. LD | |||||||||||||
