The flint measures 80 mm long, 60 mm wide and 30 mm thick, and unfortunately about 20% of the working end has recently broken off. Due to wear and damage on this hand-worked tool it has been difficult to confidently identify. Bryan Popple of Bournemouth Natural Science Society and Museum believes it could possibly be Homo neanderthalensis dating to around 200,000 years bp (before present). The smaller size indicates typical Neanderthal workings in comparison to the larger and older Homo heidelbergensis handaxe previously reported as MAS-100062. The attached images shows both handaxes for comparison. The possible Neanderthal tool is the smaller darker tool.

It has a 'bottle logo' embossed on its base. There are possibly other text\/numerals that have since worn away. The bottle shows moulding scars on the base and sides. It has a crown top finish. The egg-shaped bottle was first patented by William Francis Hamilton in 1814, the idea being that the bottle had to be stored on its side to keep the cork wet and ensuring a good seal on the reusable bottle. In around 1870, the flat based egg or Hamilton bottle was introduced. Following the 'blob top' finish being replaced by the crown top and cork sometime after 1892, when this cap design was patented, the design became more popular. This was because the bottles could now be reliably stored upright without cork shrinkage and a leaky seal causing loss of the carbonated gas. This is recognisable on this bottle by the beaded rim that the metal cap fitted over. These are also generally c.25mm in diameter. The cap would have been metal with a cork lining. This, however, lead to the decline in the popularity of torpedo bottles as it made them no longer necessary (Lucas, 2010). The mould scar travels up the neck to the lip of the bottle and this would suggest that it was manufactured around 1910 on a semi or fully automated bottle making machine, near to the end of their popularity. The 'bottle logo' on the base is probably the manufactures logo, however, several manufacturers used the same logo as their mark and therefore it has not now been possible to isolate its exact point of manufacture. The bottles were extensively exported from the U.K. and are therefore found around the world, but particularly in the former colonies and North America.", "classification":"BOTTLE", "periodFrom":41, "periodTo":41, "workflow":3, "institution":"MAS", "datefound1":"2017-08-23T00:00:00Z", "subClassification":"Food and liquid storage container", "currentLocation":"With finder", "created":"2017-08-23T08:15:00Z", "updated":"2018-05-23T14:00:10Z", "height":240, "secuid":"103", "diameter":90, "quantity":1, "material":18, "subsequentAction":"28", "completeness":4, "manufacture":9, "preservation":1, "discovery":14, "createdBy":2, "countyID":2625, "county":"East Sussex", "fourFigure":"TQ4400", "fourFigureLat":50.78170298, "fourFigureLon":0.04126088, "what3words":"pastels.dash.stockpile", "precision":10, "creator":"MAS MAS", "updatedBy":"MAS", "materialTerm":"Glass", "primaryMaterialBM":10879, "manufactureTerm":"Moulded", "completenessTerm":"Complete", "preservationTerm":"Fair", "periodFromName":"MODERN", "periodToName":"MODERN", "discoveryMethod":"Fishing", "subsequentActionTerm":"Submitted as wreck to the Receiver of Wreck", "filename":"FIPAD_2017081795.JPG", "thumbnail":"https:\/\/marinefinds.org.uk\/images\/thumbnails\/241.jpg", "imagedir":"images\/MAS", "timestamp":"2024-10-09T14:16:35.969Z", "url":"https:\/\/marinefinds.org.uk\/database\/artefacts\/record\/id\/103" }, "id":103 } ] }
