Arrow

Arrow with a bamboo shaft and a stemmed leaf-shaped iron point. The shaft of the point or the spike inserted into the shaft is twisted in. The shaft is fitted with a nock and wrapped with raffia above it and to secure the point. No inventory book entry could be clearly assigned to the object. The provenance is therefore unclear. Based on the material and the shape, it is probably an African arrow.
