Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint barbed and tanged arrowhead of early Bronze Age date. The arrowhead measures 34.2mm by 20.7mm by 4.2mm and weighs 2.6g. It has been invasively retouched over both faces. There is a small notch along one edge which probably reflects recent damage. The arrowhead weighs less than 8g and has a small length to width ratio, so this example is a Sutton type. The partially transparent mid-brown flint has a mid-gloss patina.
