projectile points

Projectile points are specialized stone tools used as tips for arrows, darts, or spears. Made by chipping away stone to create sharp, durable points, they were essential for hunting and warfare in ancient societies. These points often feature specific shapes and notches for attaching to shafts, and their design can indicate the culture or time period they come from. Over thousands of years, styles evolved, reflecting technological advancements and regional differences. Today, projectile points are valuable to archaeologists studying early human life, providing insights into hunting practices, trade routes, and cultural connections.
