Description: | An nearly complete barbed-and-tanged flint arrowhead of the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age (c. 2500 BC-1500 BC). The arrowhead is fashioned from light grey-coloured flint with a small patch of milky white-patina on its ventral and dorsal surfaces. The arrowhead is sub-triangular in plan with only a small amount of one of its barbs and a small amount of the tang missing. Covering pressure flake removals are evident on both ventral and dorsal faces and the sharpened outer edges of the implement. It seems to be of the Sutton Type (cf. Butler 2005, Figs. 68-69). The arrowhead measures 21.16 mm long, 19.45 mm wide, 3.75 mm thick and weighs 1.10 grams.
