Would anyone be able to identify the type and time period of this arrowhead? I found it in St Mary’s County in Southern Maryland.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Lisa

That's a dandy. I dont know types up there but it is several thousand years old.

Looks like an Adena Robbins .....Late Archaic to Woodland Period. 3000 to 1800 yrs Before Present.
Nice flaking which is a characteristic of Adena points. How big is it?
