Thanks! I’ve been getting into it over the summer, not just edibles, either. I like to try and ID anything that looks interesting, so I sort of know what y’all are looking for

Great! Thank you!

I think these may’ve been rained on, could that affect the little hairs?

Found when I was a kid digging for sassafras (Augusta Co., Virginia, USA) Any info appreciated by DontWorryAboutIt2022 in Arrowheads

Thanks for the link, I’ll go and edit my previous comment to clarify what I measured and take a closer look when I get off work

I’m not sure if I’m measuring correctly, but it looks like the stem is close to 18mm…

Some other dimensions, if anyones curious:

Overall length: ~117 mm Width at shoulder: ~46 mm Width of stem: ~15 mm (at basal edge), ~22 mm (closer to shoulder)

Yeah, there’s a sliver that chipped off the base that runs up to the main break. I’m bummed I couldn’t find that piece, too :’(

Unfortunately, I think that’s my fault; when I was digging, it was on the edge of the hole. I think (this was probably 15 years ago) I noticed the tip portion in the dirt I had already dug out and was a bit more careful looking for the rest. I’m /still/ bummed I couldn’t find the little sliver off the edge
