Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Although the Pleistocene deposits of the Little Thurrock area in Grays, Essex, are well known, faunal remains and lithic material having been recovered in the 19th century, little interest in the artefacts was shown by early workers; this is attributed to the absence of bifaces within the assemblage. Between 1959 and 1964 the author collected 288 artefacts consisting of core and flake material from a series of sections exposed at the Celcon Works; after examination these were described by J Wymer as Clactonian. On re-examining the assemblage recently, the author identified what he now perceived to be two bifaces of non-classic form and two biface thinning flakes. These are described and illustrated here. The raw materials of the assemblage as a whole are also noted, and the stratigraphic context is described. The author concludes with the question, 'Can this site still be regarded as Clactonian?'
