Title
(Probably) Neolithic (possible) oblique arrowhead
Description
English: Flint implement, possibly an oblique arrowhead and probably Neolithic in date. It measures 46x30x5mm and weighs 6.79g.

It is triangular in shape, the point being to the side of the distal end. The opposite short side is damaged. The dorsal face is very flat and the long ventral edges have been steeply worked.

The flint has 100% patination but it is rather heavier on the ventral face.
