Is this an arrowhead?

[Cthulhu21]

I was given this possible arrowhead and Im stumped if it is one. Any opinions? I saw 2 possible percussion strikes on the last photo (highlighted with water) and it is shaped right, however I haven’t seen this material before.

I don't know much about arrowheads, but I can tell that's not an arrowhead...

no, it is a layered sedimentary stone and the layers are flaking off. the shape is coincidental and actually not all that unusual.

Sorry, it is shaped by mother nature and wrong kind of stone material, it would easily fall apart.

Nope. Little too big for an arrowhead. Think about an arrowhead which was used for hunting, was shot from a bow, so the smaller the size of the point would allow for greater penetration. Some of the bows used by the Southern Plains tribes made out of bois'd'arc wood could get up to about 60 lbs. pull. Horn backed ones up north might be stronger. The bows I've seen that were actually used I didn't think would go more than about 45 lbs. So I look at smaller points, maybe an inch or less as arrowheads, larger as knives or atl-atl dart points.
