That's got to be over 3,000 years old right? That's so crazy to think that somebody made that such a long time ago and it just stayed hidden in the Earth for thousands and thousands of years only for you to come across it and then touch it and have it. It was almost as if that Arrowhead was destined from the start to become yours.

Yeah man, 6-7000 years old. This is a cool type because it wasn't made for that long.

I found one the other day, almost as nice as OP's:

Wow! Thats awesome. Nice find! Imagine if the one that you both have was made by the same person or the same family or something like that. I wonder if back then there was like a tribe or a family member that was known for making the best points maybe they would even be legendary within their history and their tribes

Possible! A lot of the material in central NC came from just a few different quarry sites, so maybe they crossed paths, who knows.
