What knapping characteristics can you spot?

#FindsFriday Found in 2004, it is the only surviving example of a Giornea from the 15th C. - a staple of Italian fashion at the time. Before it was found, we only knew of this piece through paintings and records
This is a penny of Harold II Godwinson, minted in Chester and dating to AD 1066. It is the first example of a Harold II coin minted by the moneyer Leofnoth to be identified and the first recorded by the PAS. #FindsFriday finds.org.uk/database/artef…
We've got lots of Roman pottery on National Highways A428 Black Cat to Caxton Gibbet including this mortarium sherd found by Archaeologist Peter.
This dates from between AD 50-190, and study of its stamp should be able to tell us the potter's name & workshop location! #FindsFriday
#CDAS #FindsFriday this week brings a #Roman bronze arm found near Halnaker, #WestSussex , in 1970 and is now in The Novium Museum. Posted originally by Durotriges Project, it probably comes from a life-size statue in the Chichester District Council area.

Here’s one for #findsfriday - glass. I always pick up glass on my travels as part of the detectorists waste disposal service. This piece intrigues me. Two layers of thin glass sandwiched together with what appears to be a silvered design. Found on a deserted med village site.
Cometh the hour, cometh the man?! Historian Brian Edwards recognised this Victorian photo & its significance at once. Doubt many others could have done the same! Brilliant find, great exhibition in Wiltshire Museum. #findsfriday #LedZep #rocknroll
#FindsFriday This butt-beaker was found in the ‘warrior burial’ of an 18-25 year old, dating to 10AD. ⚱️It’s a ‘Gallo-Belgic’ type, and the mass production of this vessel spanned from 10BC – AD14, just 24 years! A sword was also buried with the body: tinyurl.com/2xepzufb ⚔️
