Talk:Arrowhead (stone age)

There should be more detail on the various and specific kinds of arrow heads and spear heads through thousands of years, and all of this information needs a specific page. This includes the trade of copper and copper points, quartz, flint, and specific minerals. --joseph 05:48, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

In the U.S., "arrowhead" is sort of a layman's term for projectile points. It is common for people to refer to spear points, knife blades, and other bifaces all as "arrowheads". I have no problem with people using layman's terms in general, but in this case, the name is a misnomer because it suggests that any and all bifaces may have been arrow tips. I think the intent of this article was to describe ALL types of projectile points (not just those used on arrows), so the articles should probably be merged. Perhaps a search for "arrow head" could then redirect to the newly merged article titled "projectile points". Tuckerma 14:44, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Curiously, this section does not distinguish between primitive and modern arrowheads. Any reason for that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Timbanse (talk • contribs) 22:22, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
