Here is the new 11th Edition! Included here is all the material from "Arrowheads: A Beginner's Guide," with much added information. How were Native American arrowheads made? How were they used? Where can they be found? What other kinds of Indian artifacts can I also find, besides just arrowheads? If you have ever asked any of these questions - if you truly want to learn about the artifacts themselves, beyond just their names - then this is a must-read for you! This fact-filled book is the result of the author’s lifelong quest to learn as much as he could about Indian artifacts. Included is almost everything related to artifacts, in simple, easy-to-understand terms. Inside is a beginner’s introduction to how arrowheads are made (with both ancient and modern tools) - including heat-treating, water-treating, pressure flaking, percussion flaking, notching, fluting, and much more. No matter whether you have hunted for arrowheads or not, you might have already found some type of artifact, and didn’t know it. This book shows you what to be watching for, and where to look. Featured are detailed illustrations of all sorts of items, from the simplest and crudest of stone tools, to some of the most artistically-made types of ceremonial and exotic pieces ever crafted in the ancient world. There is even information for the collector, on identifying some of the most common types of fake arrowheads, along with a short price guide. In addition, it describes how arrowheads were mounted and used on arrows, atlatl darts, knives, spears, blowgun darts, drills, axes, and many other items. Presented in-depth are several sequences illustrating how drastically an arrowhead’s appearance can change with use and resharpening, over the course of its life. Plus, there are suggestions on cataloging and displaying your collection in creative ways, without damaging your artifacts. It even shows you how you can illustrate your own arrowheads. This primer makes an excellent introduction for any beginning Indian artifact enthusiast!
