Ceramic pot, flakes of flint, and a human boneThis undecorated ceramic pot was found at Slap at Turriff in Aberdeenshire in a cist grave. It had probably contained a food offering. Included in the photo are six unburnt flint flakes which were buried as grave goods and one of the bones of the corpse.
