Description from the seller
We present a beautiful Musterian culture arrowhead dating from 40,000 to 10,000 B.C. It is a prehistoric projectile made from flint (or chert). Carved to be light and extremely sharp, it was affixed to the tip of a wooden shaft to add weight, stabilize its flight, and maximize damage. It is elegant and cultural. A declarations sheet is provided.
The auction winner will cover customs duties for shipments outside the European Union.
