First arrowhead find

jkjeep · Sep 5, 2016

Found my first arrowhead, found in eastern North Carolina. I haven't researched it yet, but if anyone knows more about it please share thanks

A beauty!

Very nice!! Congrats on what is hopefully the first of many!

Is that scaring or indention or "V" on it from the sinew used?

Crazy legit score!

Looking at it more it looks like intentional art? Could it be? I've never seen a "decorated" arrow head before...

Found a broken one once,they are made of black obsideon here in Northern California.

Really nice point!!

Before I got into detecting I walked hundreds of miles looking down for points... Never found one till I started detecting..

So far, I've found a nice piece of one on land, and two more in my scoop while water hunting...

Congrats on yours!

thanks swing360, yes the v notches looks to be manmade to me, I want to research the type of stone also. its kinda like black/purple color stone

That's a Morrow Mountain point.
Looks like its made of Ryholite.
Archaic
Could be up to 6,000-7,000 years old.

Wow! I have a jar of questionable looking rocks, but if I saw that I would have no doubt!

I've watched a couple National Geographic shows on Clovis points, but know next to nothing about different types of arrowheads. What is a Morrow Mountain point?

Click to expand...

It's a type used by a certain group of Indians. Thru the years different types of natives had their own unique point types

Awesome point! Great find!

Ok, so what machine and what setting did you use to find that there artifact! :laughing:

It's surprising how much you hear people say, so how do you find bottles and other non metal things with a detector :shock:
