Description: | Flint nodules, used to make tools, were mined here by people in the Neolithic period (4,000 BC-2,200 BC). There is little sign of any occupation of the site at this time; the flint mining was possibly linked to ritual and separate from any settlement. A later enclosure of Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age date partially overlies earlier traces of mining. | Subjects: | Aerial View Ancient Site Flint Mine Industry | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | staff | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
