greek bronze age flint arrowheads

[GlisGlis]

I went to Athens National Museum of history (awesome!) and there were bronze age flint arrowheads
They are very small (the longest likely less than 1") and hair thin (no more than 2mm). they should have added almost no weight to the shaft.
They are showed with other war tools but there are no indications if they were for war or hunt
Apparently bird points were widely used all over the ancient world

There were also findings from the thermopiles battle
Many bronze arrowheads of different shapes.
There are a number observations to be made on these arrows
Even these were small. Almost never wider than 1/2 inch
The points you can see in the top and left part of the picture showed a socket to fix the shaft in.
The socket was very very small. I guess only very few millimiters of a very sharp pencil point could fit into it
The arrows in the bottom left are surprisingly similar to bodkin points so i guess the principles of different projectiles for different targets were already well defined

That’s very cool!  Interesting how they did the base.
