Lot of 25 Bird Points and Other Small Stone Arrowheads

**First Time At Auction**

North America, Southwestern United States, ca. 500 CE. A group of twenty-five hand-knapped chert projectile points with triangular forms and serrated edges. Several have projecting tails, though most have tails flush with the body. Small points like these are colloquially called "bird points," as they were initially made to hunt birds; however, experimental archaeology has shown that they could easily have been used for hunting large game like deer as birds were much easier to capture with nets. Size of largest: 1" L (2.5 cm).

Provenance: private Denver, Colorado, USA collection, acquired by his father before 1970
