SUPERB NEOLITHIC FLINT TOOL COLLECTION CIRCA 5000-2000BC, FOUND CORNWALL UK
PRESENTING THIS WEEK A VARIED. SCARCE, COLLECTION, INCLUDING VINTAGE WATCHMAKING TOOLS, ROMAN RINGS& BROOCHES FROM ANTIQUITY, BEAUTIFUL ETHNOGRAPHIC STATUES, A SELECTION OF SEAL STONES, A SOLID GOLD BYZANTINE RING AND OTHER UNUSUAL COLLECTIBLES SUPERB LARGE NEOLITHIC FLINT TOOL COLLECTION CIRCA 5000-2000BC. FOUND CORNWALL UK A superb beautiful collection of neolithic circa 5000-2000BC flint tools which fit wonderful in the hand Carefully crafted edges. Still incredibly edged and functional Found Cornwall UK in the 1970s Wonderful authentic neolithic examples. A rare complete collection The neolithic period began around 6.000 years ago when humans first settled down and began farming. They continued to make tools from flint and some kinds of tools, such as scrapers for preparing hides, stayed the same. But the neolithic also saw the introduction ... moreof new kinds of stone tool Chipped stone tools are made from materials such as chert or flint. Radiolarite, chalcedony, basalt, quartzite and obsidian via a process known as lithic reduction. One simple form of reduction is to strike stone flakes from a core using a hammerstone If the goal of the reduction strategy is to produce flakes. The remnant core may be discarded once it has become too small to use. In some strategies, however, a flintknapper reduces the core to a rough unifacial or bifacial preform, which is further reduced using soft hammer flaking techniques or by pressure flaking the edges. More complex forms of reduction include the production of highly standardized tools, which can then be fashioned into a variety of implements such as scrapers, sickles and microliths Please see photos for exact condition Low start and no reserve I aim for no less than 5 star feedback on all my items. Please be aware that by bidding on this item you are agreeing to the postage charges and that they are the lowest I can charge for packaging etc. I have a full refund policy should any item not be as described.

130-160 million years old ~ 5 x UK found Cheltonia Accipitris Ammonite fossils
130-160 million years old ~ nice collection of 5 x Cheltonia Accipitris Ammonite fossils. These Cheltonian Accipitris ammonites come from the jurassic lower lias sinemurian stage. Found in the oxynotum zone in Gloucester. The site is virtually picked out now so they are becoming scarcer to find and fewer specimins coming to light. All have some colourful shine from the golden iron pyrites they were preserved in. They look brighter due to camera flash than in normal light but I have not polished these and they will buff up. In v arying conditions as shown but they are from the age of dinasaurs!
