Description: | An edge trimmed flake, possibly a transverse arrowhead, dark grey in colour, which has been bi-facially retouched and expediently made. This may have been originally created with a view to it being utilised as an arrowhead.The upper part of the right margin and distal end of the ventral face exhibit discontinuous retouch of low angle and is of long type extent to create an effective cutting edgeBoth lateral margins have also undergone partial retouch of abrupt angle close to the proximal end which was possibly carried out for hafting purposes.Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on p142, Fig 5.128, F128 which dates to the Late Neolithic.
