Object type: LEAF ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete early to middle Neolithic flint leaf arrowhead dating to c.4000-2900 BC. It is a leaf arrowhead and is lentoid in plan and bi-convex in section. It is broadly pear-shaped with its upper edges incurved, the extent and type of retouch is invasive and scaled with a low angle on the dorsal face. The extent of retouch is also shorter on the ventral face.The arrowhead retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flint is light brown in colour and increasingly transparent towards the worked edges. A similar pear shaped example is …

County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Early Neolithic flint blade. The blade is trapezoidal in shape and in cross-section. 2 flakes have been knapped from one face, one on each side. One edge of the tool has been worked to give it a serrated edge. The tool has broken and so is incomplete- it would have been longer when it was made.
