Description
This triangular arrowhead, characterized by a basal notch, reflects the functional and stylistic diversity of Native American stone tools. The notch at the base would have facilitated the hafting process, securing the arrowhead onto a wooden shaft. The craftsmanship seen in the flaking pattern along its edges points to a deliberate method of manufacture aimed at creating a sharp and durable edge for hunting. Measuring 5 cm in length, its compact size and shape indicate its likely use as a projectile in small game hunting. The presence of a basal notch is indicative of a specific cultural tradition within the diverse Native American communities.
