Full Description
2011: The presence of some quantity of prehistoric flint, including several examples of Mesolithic flints which have been modified and reused at a later date, together with the presence of burnt flint which was noted by the excavator, reflects the general background of prehistoric activity at RAF Lakenheath. Twenty-three pieces of struck flint were recovered including 5 retouched blades, a scraper, and 18 flint flakes ranging from the Upper Palaeolithic to the Later prehistoric periods. Two joining body sherds of very abraded Roman pottery were also collected, the fragments are made in a greyware fabric and may come from the base of a jar (S1).
