Title
Neolithic leaf shaped arrowhead
Description
English: A flint early Neolithic leaf-shaped arrowhead dating to the period 4000 - 3501 BC. The arrowhead is type 2B in shape (after Green) and has been invasively retouched by pressure flaking across the entirety of both the dorsal and ventral surfaces. The striking platform is still present, however, the bul of percussion has been removed by retouch. The flint has a mottled milky grey - blue patina. It measures 28.85mm in length, 16.67mm maximum width and 2.02mm minimum width, 3.58mm maximum thickness and weighs 1.71g.
