Early this year we discovered a station, apparently with a homogeneous culture, on an arable field in the parish of Hellesdon, about half-a-mile above Norwich. The field, which has an area of about 12 acres, is on the north side of the river Wensum, from which it is about 74 yards distant at the south-east corner of the field, and 150 yards distant at the south-west corner. Between the field and the river is alluvium 12 ft. above O.D., and the field is 2—3 ft. higher. Flint implements, flakes and potboilers are very abundant on the lower part of the field, thin out rapidly on the higher part, and occur sporadically on the more elevated ground in the immediate vicinity.Several thousand cones, flakes and chips were examined on the spot, but the number of implements retained was 482. The flint of which they are made is easily divisible into three groups.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
