About Arrowheads
Arrowheads have been used for thousands of years, some even dating back to the days of the stone age. They were used as a vital tool of survival by people all around the world. From the Native Americans to the Greek Empire, civilizations everywhere depended on arrowheads. With such a long, rich history, it's no wonder collecting arrowheads has remain a popular hobby shared my many.
What are Arrowheads?
An arrowhead is a simple tip added to the end of an arrow or bow. Chances are you've seen one sometime in your life, either in person, in magazine, on television, or at a museum. Although there are have been many variations made of the arrowhead, typically they have been crafted with stone and constructed with a sharpened point. Metal, wood, and even bone arrowheads have been found as well. In fact, many of the Roman arrowheads found today were crafted from metals such as bronze.
The arrowhead is attached to the shaft of the arrow using a tang, cap, or by simply inserting the blunt-end of the arrowhead into a split in the shaft. If the arrowhead is attached with the split-shaft method, it is usually reinforced by wrapping wire, straw, or tough material available. This helps secure the arrowhead to the shaft to prevent it from slipping it.
The purpose of the arrowhead is to simply create more effective hunting weapons. Imagine how well an arrow or spear would work without a sharp tip. Not good at all, right? With a sharp arrowhead on the end of it, however, it becomes much more effective tool and gives the hunting tribes the upper-hand.

Learning and appreciating the past is as important as history itself. It is said if you don't learn about the past, mistakes in history will repeat themselves. This is where many arrowhead collectors get their passion for the hobby from.
Arrowheads carry a piece of history along with them. If you find an arrowhead in the U.S., you may be excited knowing it possibly came from a Native American hundreds of years ago. And by knowing that the same arrowhead you are holding today was used for hunting in everyday survival.
