Using digital imaging techniques the Making a Markproject examined Neolithic decorated portable artefacts from three key regions (Southern England/East Anglia; the Irish Sea region; Northeast Scotland). Digital analysis revealed, for the first time, the prevalence of practices of erasure and reworking changing our understanding of these enigmatic artefacts. Rather than mark making being a peripheral activity, we can now appreciate the central importance of mark making to the formation of Neolithic communities across Britain and Ireland.
