Description: | Oblique arrowhead of dark brown translucent flint which has an isosceles triangle plan. One convergent margin is invasively bifacially retouched to a sharp straight edge. The opposite margin is bifacially worked at the distal end to the pointed tip and discontinuously to trim the already sharp edge. The straight proximal end is a hinge termination and may have been part of the flake blank. Butler (2005) illustrates a triangular oblique arrowhead on page 161, fig 67, 4. Keene (1999) illustrates a similar triangular example on page 100, Fig.3, No.57.
