Arrowhead (<i>Yanone</i>)

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows an ancient spearhead titled "Arrowhead (Yanone)" by artist unknown. The spearhead is long and thin with a pointed tip. The spearhead is silver-colored metal. The base of the spearhead is wider than the tip and has two slight protrusions on each side. The spearhead tapers from the base to the tip. The handle is partially visible and appears to be made of wood with a small metal band around it near the spearhead; it is brown with spots of red. The background of the image is black.
