✅ SOLVED Found my first arrowhead/point yeaterday

[WVExplorer]

Found my first arrowhead while metal detecting in a river. Actually was digging out a copper/brass signal and dug this out in a scoop of sand and gravel.




New to Native American artifacts. Any idea of type, age, material, etc will be helpful.

Found in north central WV. I believe Adena were in the area, not sure what other tribes.

Thanks.

Trying to research. Looks similar to one called a Buck Creek or a Buck Garden. Others in this area that appear similar are Kanawha and Kessell.
