Object type: BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Devon
Workflow stage: Published
A Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age flint barbed-and-tanged arrowhead. The arrowhead is roughly triangular in plan with barbs and tang at the bottom. One barb has snapped and broken away at the end; the remaining barb is obliquely shaped at the end. The tang is rounded. One face has been extensively worked; there is less working on the opposite surface and no cortex remains on either side. The flint is dark brown in colour. The arrowhead dates approximately to c.2500 BC- 1500 BC; and is similar to the Conygar Hill type (see figure 69, number 4, p165 in Butler 'Prehistoric Flintwork').
