Object type: BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete flint barbed-and-tanged arrowhead of Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date, circa 2400 BC - 1000 BC. The arrowhead is roughly triangular in plan. One of the barbs is incomplete, but the complete example measures 27mm in length and 2mm in thickness. It is lozenge-shaped in section until it meets the main body. The tang is also roughly lozenge-shaped in section, but is snapped shortly after it leaves the body. The break across the other barb is patinated the same as the rest of the arrowhead, which suggests that it was broken in antiquity. The arrowhead is made of a l…

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A flint barbed and tanged arrowhead dating from the Late Neolithic to Middle Bronze Age (c. 2500 BC - c.1150 BC). The arrowhead is bifacially worked and sub-triangular in plan. There are two rounded notches in the base, flanking the central tang with a barb at either side. The tang is complete and extends beyond the limit of the barbs, of which only one is complete. In "Guide to the Identification, Assessment and Recording of Lithics", Bond (2004, p.205) comments that the date range for barbed and tanged arrowheads is taken to be implicated, in Wessex in particular, with the onset …
