Description: | The butt of a broken flint arrowhead, probably a leaf shaped arrowhead from the early Neolithic. The butt is rounded suggesting that the complete arrowhead would have been of ogival type. The arrowhead has invasive retouch covering much of both of the faces, although it does not cover the whole of the artefact. The even patina in the break suggests that this damage is ancient. The flint has a pale brown patina with dark brown to black inclusions. What remains of the arrowhead measures 17.2 mm in length, 23.36 mm wide, 2.5 mm thick and weighs 1.3 grams.
