Petit-tranchet flint arrowhead

Description

Petit Tranchet Arrowhead – This rather strange arrowhead has had archaeologists and archers scratching their heads for decades! A chisel shaped ‘tip’ which must have had a very specific use. Personally I think it was a means of roost shooting birds and tree dwelling rodents without pinning them to the tree. After all who wants to lose their arrow and their meal!
