MACE HEAD (01:001) FOUND BY MRS WHEEN, JORDANS. ALSO THREE FLINT FLAKES (02:001 AND 02 :002) FOUND BY MR AND MRS GILES COOPER, JORDANS (B1-3).
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MESOLITHIC AND NEOLITHIC FINDS UNKNOWN.




A broken mace-head or oval stone with hour-glass perforation, possibly Mesolithic, was found by Mrs Wheen on her land at 'Further Pegs', Jordans (SU 9791). Also found here was a broken barbed and tanged arrowhead. (B2)

Quartzite pebble macehead; now in private collection.
The approximate find-spot of the pebble macehead was indicated on OS 6" in the area SU 975918 by Mrs Wheen, who retains the find. Mrs Wheen has a collection of flint implements found since the last war on the surface of her garden of Further Pegs at SU 97569172. They date from Pa to EBA and include two fragments of Pa handaxes, two tranchet axes, two hammerstones, and the barbed and tanged arrowhead mentioned by Head (Authy 1).
Over 100 flake tools including Me points, Me/Ne scrapers, borers and blades. These implements, predominantly Me and Ne, together with "hundreds" of wasters found but not retained by Mrs Wheen indicate an Me/Ne working floor. No finds have been made outside the garden of Further Pegs (B4).
