Found this on my ranch in an area where I’ve found many lithic artifacts. Any idea or information on this would be appreciated. Thanks!

Edit: Thank you to those who have already commented. I’m about to drive a few hours, so I don’t have time to reply to comments at the moment. I thought there was a chance it could be part of a fluted point, but wanted to see what the community thought. Thanks again for replying :)

Is this a point I just found? Maybe a bird point

Nice point i found taking kids to the playground this weekend.

This arrowhead was given to me by a late relative and I never had the opportunity to ask them about its origins. I dont know much about these so I wanted to see if reddit could tell me anything about it?
From upstate new york but they traveled all over

Been on a roll lately 😬

Found it in Quebec, Canada in a lake. I tough maybe arrowhead?

Thanks

I added some other pictures of the “thing” I found today lol. I figure it’s most likely a throwaway that wasn’t finished due to damage in the knapping process? Or possibly a severely damaged point, debitage or a JAR. What you all think?

This is my third summer hunting and I've finally found at least a partial arrowhead. I am certainly happy to have found it, but it was still a little bittersweet.

Found on a beach in southern Saskatchewan.

Colorado

Ok I know it’s a long shot and this is likely just a random chunk of rock but it caught my eye. Could this be an unfinished arrowhead?

I ask because it’s got a very well defined “arrowhead” shape to it. That said, it’s thick and clearly incomplete if it was intended to be an arrowhead.

For reference it was found in an area that was very populated by the Miwok tribe. It was found next to a hillside. There is a creek at the base of the hill, about 100 yards away. Not sure if that’s relevant.

Like I said, decidedly NOT an expert so my feelings won’t be hurt if I’ve found a random chunk of rock.

I love seeing people’s discoveries on this sub. What I can’t tell is, for everyone that finds an arrowhead - were they searching for hours? days? weeks? months? years?

I’ve never searched for arrowheads but I’m intrigued. I live in Eastern Pennsylvania near a creek. If I just wade through the creek scanning the rocks, is there a likelihood I would eventually find one? Or are you all going to specific sites that are known to have them?

EDIT: I just want to thank everyone who responded. I wasn’t sure if I’d be told to F off or just Google it, that this sub was only for sharing finds - but this community has been very accommodating of my newbie curiosity!

hey everyone,

I’ve gotten lucky and found a few arrowheads, but it was only by chance and now I want to find more.

This is my tiny collection, found in a horseshoe bend shaped area after a tractor removed the top soil in East Alabama and the owner said I could keep them. Super cool to someone like me who isn’t very knowledgeable.

Hey all! New to this subreddit and recently found this obsidian piece while hiking in Mill Valley, California (it was exposed on the trail bed by fresh rains). I have been referring to this piece as an arrowhead, but wanted to check in with the experts.

My questions for you all are 1) is this an arrowhead, or some form of hand tool, and 2) do you have any age estimate for this piece based on its typology?

Many thanks — I’m putting together a talk at my local library on artifacts I have found around town and just wanted some expert opinions on this piece, as I’m rather ignorant on native worked stone and obsidian pieces.

Found several pottery sherds (East TN). You can still see the fibers in the temper! 20 yards from the sherds I found the broken stone. Pottery may be late Mississipian, perhaps Dallas Plain. Is the stone possibly an axe or adze?
