Notes A human skeleton (male between 30-40 years old) was uncovered during the installation of an electrical cable about 1.5 m below current street surface in Narrabeen, NSW. The skeleton contained several backed blades embedded within the bones and indicated he was killed by at least three hafted weaopns, including a spear. It provides the first definitive evidence of baked blades being used in a hafted context and used for violent means. Skeletal position and geomorphological evidence indicates he was partially burned and naturally buried by dune progression in the area.
