Arrowhead (<i>Yanone</i>)

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a spearhead named "Arrowhead (Yanone)". The spearhead is long and narrow with a pointed tip. The spearhead is made of metal with a gray color and visible signs of aging or rust. The metal is darker at the bottom and gets lighter as it gets closer to the tip. The spearhead has a long, thin shape with a slight tapering towards the tip. There are two slight indentations on either side near the bottom of the spearhead. A small portion of the wooden handle is visible, appearing dark brown. The background of the image is black.
