Historical and Collecting Context

Neolithic stone tools are valued for the insight they provide into the development of early technologies and the skilled use of naturally occurring lithic materials. Scrapers are generally understood as tools designed with a worked edge suitable for scraping tasks, although the precise use of an individual artefact cannot be determined from appearance alone. As a Neolithic example identified with Norfolk, this specimen has strong relevance for collectors of British Stone Age material and displays relating to prehistoric craftsmanship.

The artefact is particularly suitable for a personal collection, educational display, study cabinet or museum-style presentation. It can be displayed alongside other prehistoric tools, lithic artefacts or educational resources exploring the Neolithic period and the development of early toolmaking. Its historical interest comes from the combination of its scraper identification, Neolithic cultural association and connection with Norfolk.
