An arrow from a crookedly grown wooden shaft with a long-stemmed metal tip. The stem is square-shaped and provided with little pointy barbs on its edges. The stem serves as a tang. The arrowhead is formed triangularly. One of the bottom edges extends into a thin, pointy barb. The shaft has a fletching above the notch that is fixed with bast. For the fletching, the ends of the split feathers were fixed to the end of the shaft so that they jut out from the shaft. Then the feathers were bended upwards and their quill was tied down to the shaft.
The provenance of the object is not cleared. The fletching and the tip indicate a potential origin from Central Africa.
