Title
Neolithic leaf shaped arrowhead
Description
English: About 80% of a leaf shaped arrowhead, missing the point to an old break, dating to the Early Neolithic period. Both faces are covered by invasive, shallow, parallel retouch done by pressure flaking. There are patches of cortex on both sides near the butt and a further patch in the upper corner on one side, in all about 15% of the surface. The break at the point is a hinge fracture suggesting an accidental break. The flint is mid grey flint with paler areas and mottling. It is 19.9mm long, 18.6mm wide and 3.2mm thick; it weighs 1.27 grams.
