Abstract
Later Bronze Age flint technology: a presentation and discussion of post-barrow debit...
Torben Bjarke Ballin
3 - 28
The report attempts to characterise and date the individual assemblages of lithic artefacts recovered from the Raunds Area Project excavations in the Nene Valley, Northamptonshire, as well as defining chronologically unmixed sub-assemblages with strong research potential. Although assemblages were defined from Mesolithic, Neolithic and Early Bronze Age contexts, the larges unmixed assemblages are the Later Bronze Age flint scatters found on top of Barrows 1 and 3. This latter material is presented and discussed, the main aim being to define a precise technological profile which will allow the post-barrow material to be compared with late assemblages recovered throughout Britain.
A Late Neolithic flint hoard at Two Mile Bottom, near Thetford, Norfolk
Peter Robins
29 - 32
The article discusses an assemblage of some twenty to thirty Late Neolithic flint artefacts recovered during construction work at the Fibrewatt Power Station, Two Mile Bottom, Norfolk.
The Lower Palaeolithic site of Broom: geocarchaeological implications of optical dating
Robert T Hosfield
Jenni Chambers
33 - 42
Report presenting the results of three seasons' fieldwork and an initial optical dating programme at the Lower Palaeolithic site of Broom in the Lower Axe Valley. The site has yielded a large Acheulean artefact assemblage. The research demonstrated that there was a terminal Lower Palaeolithic presence in southwest Britain dated provisionally to c. 250,000--270,000 years BP; that there are potential links between fluvial sedimentary sequences and high-resolution climatic events; and that the apparent absence of Levallois material at Broom may due to a number of different factors under further investigation.
A bout coupé handaxe from Enfield in the lower Lea Valley
Barry John Bishop
43 - 47
The report discusses a Palaeolithic handaxe recovered during an excavation at Plevna Road, Lower Edmonton.
Collections of Lower Palaeolithic artefacts from Abbots Leigh, Somerset (1991--92)
Brian Hack
48 - 51
Article on collections of stone tools of Lower Palaeolithic type recovered at Chapel Pill Farm, Abbots Leigh, Bristol. The artefacts are considered in typological groups.
An introduction to using statistical techniques for classifying stone tools
Ian Herbertson
52 - 59
The author discusses the basic ideas of the classification of artefacts, and describes the help available from employing elementary statistical techniques.
A flint knapper's foreword to Lynford
John Lord
60 - 70
The author offers some personal reflections on flint knapping, and describes investigations at a gravel extraction site at Lynford, Norfolk, which eventually led to the discovery of mammoth remains in situ in association with a Middle Palaeolithic flint handaxe and flakes.
