Title
Neolithic flint leaf shaped arrowhead
Description
English: A prehistoric worked flint, probably a fairly crude early Neolithic leaf shaped arrowhead. The flint appears to be broken at the proximal end, missing the butt. The flake has been worked to a point at the distal end by retouch applied from the dorsal surface along both lateral edges. It is sub-triangular in plan and sub-triangular in section. The flint is a grey to pale cream in colour. It measures 24.1 mm long, 23.9 mm wide, 5.2 mm thick and weighs 3.2 grams.
