Object type: BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Doncaster
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A flint barbed and tanged arrowhead dating from the late Neolithic to Middle Bronze Age, about 2400 BC - 500 BC. The implement is formed on a tertiary flake of mottled mid grey flint. It is broadly triangular with a narrow pointed projecting tang. The barbs are very slight, but they appear to be complete. The arrowhead is also unusual in having the scaled retouch confined to semi-abrupt removals from the margins, only slightly invasive, leaving the centre of the dorsal face smooth. The point is formed at the proximal end of the flake. Measurements are; length 24.9mm, width 15.3mm, thi…
