Description: | Catno. is noted on one side along with the the inscription "FAYUM S." MANU Fayum Egypt Judging by the size of the flint head, it is quite possible that the piece was used as an arrow head .
It would have been tied with string onto a piece of wood.
Also, a considerable amount of time must have been used to shape the bottom of the flint head so it would fit onto the shaft better. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | EM : FAYUM : EGYPT : FLINT : SPEAR : RJONES01 : NORTH AFRICA : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
