My kids found all 3 of these arrowheads over the weekend. We live near the Blanchard River in Northwest, OH. I know there were tribes around this area. Any info on these particular arrowheads? Thanks! 12718351_10207712124094422_357641808696617330_n.jpg 12742239_10207712124054421_5362999029701599170_n.jpg 12742394_10207712123974419_2559604645543695262_n.jpg 12742711_10207712124014420_6559877940625093683_n.jpg 12745561_10207712124134423_7755233915255466151_n.jpg

The kid did great!!

The big one looks like a Thebes.

That was my thoughts. The other looks like a Kramer a little out of the area but not by much and the last little bifurcate Fox Valley?
I am sure the Grimm Reaper will know.

Bruce, you are very close. That it is a Thebes, but doesn't look to be an actual E-Notch type. The Bifurcate is more than likely a LeCroy and not a McCorkle. McCorkles are bigger. The other piece is a Woodland type but not a true Snyders.

They are field finds. They found another one a day after I posted these. I'll get some measurements and post...

It's probably just me, but the "Thebes" looks unusual to me.

Here are some measurements and a couple of others they have found (1 was a few year's back...) Thank you for all of the input! My kids and I are fascinated by all of it. :icon_thumright:

These are MacCorkles. They are usually a large Bifurcate type and with larger ears.
