Title
Barbed & tanged arrowhead
Description
English: Near complete small Early Bronze Age flint barbed and tanged arrowhead, probably dating from between 2300 to 1500BC. The arrowhead has patinated a pale blue-white colour. The tip is missing, and was broken in antiquity, as evidenced by patination over the break. The missing tip may be the result of impact through use of the arrowhead. The tang has a squared end and extends beyond the barbs. The barbs are pointed and one has suffered some recent damage.
Depicted place (County of findspot) the Vale of Glamorgan
