All Arrowheads Aren't Really Arrowheads Everybody knows what an arrowhead looks like, but all arrowheads didn't fit at the end of an arrow. Arrowhead is a generic umbrella term for projectile points, but not all of what are commonly called arrowheads were even projectile points. Confusing? Certainly. Much of what is commonly accepted as being arrowheads were actually crafted to be spears and atlatl dart points, drills, knife blades, scrapers, and other tools. The bow and arrow in North America only dates back about 1,000 years, yet Native Americans in North America date back approximately 13,000 years (estimates vary). That means that Native Americans in North america were making projectile points and pointed tools thousands of years before the bow and arrow. And most of what most people call arrowheads aren't true arrowheads.
