Stone Projectile Points (Arrowheads)

The image displays two stone projectile points, commonly referred to as arrowheads, displayed on a red, textured surface, possibly velvet or felt. The top point is a light greyish-white color with several small lighter inclusions or possibly age-related surface deposits. It is broadly triangular in shape with prominent side notches, suggesting a stemmed point style. The edges exhibit evidence of flaking, consistent with lithic reduction techniques used in prehistoric toolmaking. There appears to be a minor chip or imperfection near the tip. The lower point is a similar light, earthy tone, perhaps slightly more tan or buff colored. This point is longer and narrower than the top one and also shows distinct flaking along its edges. It appears to have a different base shape with more pronounced shoulders and possibly a tapering stem. Both points exhibit visible signs of age and possible usewear, including some dulling of edges and potential surface patination, though the image clarity limits detailed assessment. Manufacturing details such as maker's marks or signatures are not present, as is typical for prehistoric artifacts. The style of the points suggests they are likely part of a collection of Native American artifacts, potentially dating to the Woodland or Late Prehistoric periods, though a precise age and cultural affiliation cannot be determined from the image alone. The condition appears stable, with no obvious signs of recent damage or repairs beyond the natural wear and chipping that would occur during their original use or due to age. The craftsmanship, while functional, appears to be of a typical standard for utilitarian projectile points.
