Non-Crescentic Sickle-Flints from Sussex, by E. Cecil Curwen, published January 1936 in The Antiquaries Journal (vol. 16 issue 1, article, pp.85-90)   View Online

The view that diffuse lustre on the sharp edge of a flint indicates that the flint has been used for cutting corn, or at least grass, has often been put forward. It has recently been criticized by M. René Neuville, and these criticisms have been countered by fresh experimental evidence which has convinced the writer that this interpretation holds good. Flint flakes, some worked, some apparently unworked, are frequently found in Egypt, Palestine, and elsewhere, bearing diffuse lustre on both faces adjacent to one or more edges, and such flakes are generally recognized as having served as parts of flint sickles, for some have actually been found in their wooden mounts. The possibility of analogous implements having been used in Britain has not so far received much attention, except that the beautifully worked crescentic 'knives' of Scandinavian type are now generally recognized as having been sickles. A few of these latter show the characteristic corn-lustre on their concave edges.

Wealden petrology: The Top Ashdown pebble bed and the Top Ashdown sandstone, by Percival Allen, published February 1948 in Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society (vol. 104, issue 1-4, article, pp.257-321)   View Online

The Top Ashdown Pebble Bed occurs immediately below the Wadhurst Clay, averages three to four inches in thickness and is well exposed over an area of about 700 square miles in Sussex, Kent and Surrey. It is thus well suited to areal petrological study, being free from the invalidating influences of vertical variation. The "Top Ashdown Sandstone" is an arbitrary horizon situated four inches beneath the pebble bed, and designed primarily as a check. The Wealden strata of the Weald contain thin, yet widespread, horizons similar to the Top Pebble Bed. Detailed petrological studies of them have been undertaken. Where possible, all information, petrological and other, is expressed quantitatively. In no case is the assumption made that sampling information necessarily represents geological reality. Sampling data are linked with the unknowable truth, which they estimate, only through probability statements based on objective statistical analysis. Throughout the paper, the chances that the author may be talking nonsense are given for most alleged facts and conclusions.

Wealden petrology: The Top Ashdown pebble bed and the Top Ashdown sandstone, by Percival Allen, published January 1949 in Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society (vol. 105, issue 1-4, article, pp.535-537)   View Online

After the publication of the above paper, the author was asked if he would demonstrate, over a selected route, the field evidence for his fundamental conclusion that the Top Ashdown Pebble Bed is a single Weald-wide stratigraphic unit, and not a series of lenticular pebble-beds at varying horizons. On this conclusion, of course, the validity of his whole argument depends.
He very kindly agreed to do so, and a route embracing Cowden, Penshurst, Wadhurst, Rotherfield, Burwash, Dallington, Battle, Crowhurst, Westfield, Brede, Robertsbridge and Hurst Green (traceable by reference to fig. 2, p. 268 of the paper) was chosen.
Numerous sections- at least one in each of these localities -were examined, all at the junction of the Wadhurst Clay and Ashdown Sand as shown on the one-inch scale Old Series Geological Survey maps. Without exception, Dr. Allen was able to demonstrate the presence of a well-developed pebble bed, varying in thickness from an inch to nine inches and in most instances associated with the swamp soil-bed, containing many rhizomes and stalks of Equisetites lyelli, as described in his paper.
Dr. Allen's evidence is clear, for all to see; and his correlation of the various sections?in making which much other field evidence was taken into count, and by virtue of which he concludes the Top Pebble Bed to be everywhere one and the same?is, in the writer's view, fully justified.

In 1985 the author initiated a field walking project (completed in 1994) covering a 1-km-square area of Downland, on East and West Hills, Pyecombe (Fig. 1). Previously, many flint artefacts had been recovered by amateur flint collectors from this area (Gardiner 1988), and the wide range of pieces recovered from East and West Hills suggested that there had been activity here during the Neolithic and Early Bronze Age. The pieces recovered by these early flint collectors were mostly finely-retouched implements such as arrowheads, scrapers and knives, with very little debitage being collected. To obtain a clearer picture of the prehistoric activity on East and West Hills a systematic survey of the area was carried out (Butler 1988).

The collection of prehistoric flintwork by Sylvia Standing around Southwater, near Horsham, has provided a fascinating insight into Mesolithic hunter-gatherer activity in the area. The presence of Horsham points on some of the sites alongside other types of microlith, tranchet adzes and other implements suggests they may be associated with a reduction in human group mobility.
