Description: | A probable tranchet or triangular flint arrowhead of late Neolithic date. The size of this artefact is slightly larger than most arrowheads of the type; however, the level of working is consistent with this identification.The flint has been worked to a triangular form, with the bottom point having been removed, probably to aid hafting. Both surfaces are extensively retouched through pressure flaking. The flint is mid grey in colour and has little patination.The tool measures 42.6mm long, 42mm wide and 6.4mm thick. The weight is 13.67g. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
