Title
BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Description
English:

A Late Neolithic to Middle Bronze Age (c. 2500 BC - c.1150 BC) barbed and tanged arrowhead, with damage to one of its edges and perhaps its tang.

The arrowhead is bifacially worked, sub-triangular in shape and lozenge-shaped in cross-section. The complete long edge is convex while the other is concave, as a result of damage. The barb has a diagonal slant to its external edge. There are two round ended notches in the base, creating the barbs either side of the central tang. The arrowhead has invasive, sub-parallel, semi-abrupt/ low angle retouch along all external edges, the area around the notches being more abrupt.

The flint is translucent at the edges (where thinnest) and brown in colour with some patination spots. It measures 34.3mm in length, 24.8mm in max.width, 4.3mm in max.thickness and weighs 3.12g.
