These seven Native-made iron arrow points were found in the late 1980’s on a campsite located on a small spring fed creek.

Those are really cool examples of Native ingenuity! Must have took alot of time to craft each one of those points using nothing more than stone tools I imagine?! I think Charlie shared some literature on how brass kettle points were made, I'm guessing these were made very similary with a little more "elbow grease" perhaps lol. Thanks for sharing!Josh (Ky/Tn collector)

I have never found a metal point visually. All of my metal arrow point finds were with a metal detector.
I would say the metal detector people definitely find way more metal points than the stone hunters.

Red, I have seen some killer brass or copper points found in far eastern Ct. by metal detectorists. Just one reason, a big one, lol, that I wish I had got into that hobby as well. I believe I have been blessed to find two metal triangles surface hunting over the many years. In these parts, they would date to the 1600's.
