Title
BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Description
English:

An incomplete flint late Neolithic to early Bronze Age barbed and tanged arrowhead dating to the period c. 2700 - 1600 BC. The arrowhead is sub-triangular in shape with convex sides and one intact rounded barb. The other barb is missing due to an old break. The tang is longer than the surviving barb and is oblique. The arrowhead exhibits invasive and semi-invasive semi-abrput parallel retouch around the edges of both the dorsal and ventral surfaces. There is an unretouched area in the centre of both sides.

It measures 21.05mm in length, 13.55mm maximum width, is 2.45mm thick and weighs 0.78 grams.
