Title

Description
English: A complete leaf shaped arrow head of Neolithic date (4000-2350 BC). The lithic is sub-spatulate in plan and plano-convex in section. The dorsal surface retains a large amount of cortex making this a primary flake. Both the left and right hand edges contain partial stepped flaking and all edges have low angle retouch. The ventral surface smooth with shallow ripples of percussion emanating from the right hand edge and partial parallel flaking along the distal, left and right hand edges.

The flint is a light brown in colour with grey inclusions throughout. The cortex is a dark brown in colour.
