Arrowheads weren’t just tools—they were often traded like money. Tribes valued them for their usefulness and skillful craftsmanship, making them a form of early currency in Native American trade long before coins came along.

Offered here is a matched pair of authentic Dovetail-style projectile points, expertly crafted from flint/chert and exhibiting strong flaking patterns and well-defined bases.

Dovetail points are typically associated with the Early Archaic period (approximately 8,000–9,500 years BP), most commonly found in the Midwest and Eastern United States. They are known for:

• Expanding, flared "dovetail" style bases
• Deep basal notches
• Broad triangular blades
• Fine percussion flaking

Both examples show classic bifacial workmanship with visible flake scars and natural patina consistent with age. The dovetail bases are intact and well-defined, making this pair especially desirable for collectors of Early Archaic material.

These are excellent display pieces for:

• Native American artifact collectors
• Early Archaic period enthusiasts
• Educational displays
• Historic Americana collections
