Lithic analysis and classification
Once we have collected our lithics we need to analyse and classify them.
Fieldwalking
Our main activity involves walking over ploughed fields looking for stone tools (lithics), mostly flints. For each find we record the GPS location.
Test Pitting
In 2025 we completed our first test pitting excavations at Boatleys Field.
Mapping
Once the finds have been catalogued we can display the results on maps and relate to the local environment
