BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Description
English:

Neolithic flint barbed and tanged arrowhead.

Made on flint, becoming light grey and opaque with patina. The upper left of the piece is a core platform, although the piece was probably struck from near the base indicating an orthogonal removal. The ventral face has been extensively flaked and retouched (low-angle, invasive, sub-parallel) along the entire right edge and the lower left.
