Title
Neolithic leaf-shaped arrowhead (plan).
Description
English: A knapped Neolithic possible leaf-shaped arrowhead, incomplete. In plan the arrowhead is sub-lentiod with a convex distal terminal. The arrowhead is bifacially flaked with heavily abraded edges. The arrowhead is knapped from a mottled light grey flint which is so narrow it is opaque. It measures 26.33mm long, 18.45mm wide and 2.29mm thick. It weighs 1.2g.

The arrowhead is probably a leaf-shape type which dates to the Neolithic period, c. 3500 to 2100 B.C.
