English: A leaf shaped flint arrowhead dating from the early Neolithic period, 3500-2500BC. It is flat on one side and convex on the other. A small piece has been chipped from one side; this chip displays patination and happened at some time in antiquity.There is invasive shallow retouch on the dorsal face, but little working on the ventral.
