Very nice arrows, Bill.

The variety and design of arrows seem endless. Those arrowheads are very interesting and hope to see more examples of them.

I recall a arrow (purchased while in Rwanda) with an arrowhead made of an oblong-shaped seed - used for stunning (not piercing) small prey.

In my country, the Philippines, we have at least 50 known arrow-types - each used differently depending on prey, size of prey, wet or dry season, distance of target, battle or hunt, etc., etc. even as brides-price!
