c.6000 B.C. A rare Mesolithic Chert unifacial arrow head excavated close to the famous Culverwell habitation site, Portland Bill, Isle of Portland, Dorset and from a Hampshire Geologists collection but originally hailing from an older collection amassed in the 1970's. A pleasant and well defined point formed on a small chert flake with largely flat underside and worked on upper surface on either edge to form sharp blade edges and a distinct tip with a medial ridge running long its length. Would possibly had a small tang at the butt end for fixing into a wooden arrow shaft but this now lost in antiquity, otherwise a nice example of a rare Mesolithic arrow head in very nice overall condition and from a famous Mesolithic site, 30mm long x 19mm at widest x 4mm at thickest point,
