John Pull and Blackpatch

Sussex County Magazine
http://scm.pastfinders.org/scm_27_pull.htm
You can get a sense of John Pull's work in his own words and illustrations from this article, 'Further discoveries at Church Hill, Findon', which was originally published in the Sussex County Magazine in 1952.

Blackpatch and its secrets

0849_blackpatch_and_its_secrets.htm

Findon village community website, which has a variety of photos and other information about the Time Team dig at Blackpatch.

Flint tools

The Lithics Site
http://wings.buffalo.edu/anthropology/
Lithics/index2.html

This is run by Hugh W Jarvis at the Department of Anthropology, University of Buffalo. He describes it as 'a resource for archaeological lithic analysts', which rather understates the extent of its content, particularly in terms of links to other sites dealing with all manner of study of stone tools and related matters.

The Knapper's Corner
www.eskimo.com/~knapper
A website dedicated to the advancement of flint knapping. It contains a good introduction to the subject and an extensive range of resources and web links.

Thetford Forest Archaeological Survey
http://spamandchips.net/archaeology/index.htm
A good example of a long-term field survey and accompanying website put together by an amateur enthusiast. The website reports the author's finds of flints (primarily prehistoric but also incorporating Roman and medieval sites discovered during his surveys) since he first started searching in Thetford Forest in 1995. There are useful sections on fieldwalking, methodology, lithics (prehistoric struck flint) and various photo galleries. Unusually (and to his great credit) the author does not remove most finds but photographs them in situ.

For links to other websites, either on archaeology generally or specific to the periods and subjects raised in the programme, see our extensive section on Archaeology websites. In particular, see the section on the Prehistoric era.
