===Seller's note=== Whether arrowheads, spearheads, axes and adzes, all these wrought iron objects were protected by animal fat by the ethnic groups to whom these objects belonged, to protect them from oxidation.
All my iron-containing objects have been ''cleaned'' by my care, by electrolysis. This process does not affect the metal at all, while restoring its original appearance as it was at the time of its making.

IMPORTANT FOR U.S. BIDDERS
- Due to the significant restrictions imposed by U.S. Customs on imports (high customs fees for both the sender and the recipient, as well as extensive administrative paperwork), I regret to inform potential bidders from the United States that I will no longer be able to ship items purchased at auction to them.
Thank you to our American friends for refraining from bidding on my items until relations between our governments return to normal.
