✅ SOLVED Arrowhead found by Lake Norman NC

[josephbjr]

Today I stumbled upon a nice black/grey arrowhead where some work was being done by my house in NC. I was wondering if anyone knew what type of arrowhead, what kind of rock, or what time period it comes from. It was a great find for me, & Anyone with any knowledge would be a great help.

Without the base it's hard to pinpoint. Go here and you will see several similar North Carolina Notched Projectile Points. In the one pic it looks black but the other gray, either color it's probably flint. It's a great find! Hope you find more!

Without a base, it's hard to say for sure. My gut says a Palmer which would be Early Archaic and around 9500 to 8500 BP.

That is some pretty material, and a nice find, even with what looks like part of the base missing. I agree it is probably a mid to early archaic piece, and I would not be surprised if it was a Decatur type?
