friend of mine found this while he was on the field. he think that this is very very old thing and he gave it to me as a present.  :D

it is bronze... can you have a look and give your ideas about it. how old it can be etc.





best.

I would guess 500 BC. Looks very similar to Chinese bronze arrowheads from that time. Bue--.

i forgot to say it has been found in turkey. so it should be belong some culture that lived in anatolia... sorry bue this can not be chinese except a chnises guy came all the way and a shot an arrow or dropped one arrow point  :D

what an awesome find... very cool indeed!

Well I would love to know more about it Ink but don't discount the Chinese head remember the mongols raged war in that part of the world. Plus trade with the far east might have brought in such prizes.

I believe the Romans made bronze tools I wonder if it could be from them?

The Mongols loosed a lot of arrows in your part of the world.
Very nice!
Dave.

do you know a web site like presenting a such tools and weapons about such things? so i can have a look and try to find out...

I just did a search for , bronze arrowheads, and you can see pics and descriptions of many. Bue--.

Post your photo on the Asian Traditional Archery Research Network   www.ATARN.net    The guys there are THE experts on ancient archery artifacts and such.  They also have a group in Facebook where you could post the pic.

If it's bronze, it's a HECK of a lot older than "medieval", that's for certain!!

oh wonderful... will they answer back to you ken? thanks for this.

best.

insoup -- sorry to be so long in replying.  Yes, they will reply if you post and ask questions.  

ATARN is a Forum, just like TradGang, but dedicated to what I call historic and ethnic traditional archery, not 20th century Europo-American traditional archery.
