Part of an arrow. The wooden shaft is painted black at the end where a leaf-shaped sheet of bronze is inserted through the shaft, taking the place of feathers. At each end of the sheet, the arrow is bound tightly with grass fibre to hold the sheet in place. The other end of the shaft is split and bound with grass fibres, too and still holds the iron tang of the arrow-head.
