Atransverse arrowhead is a type of trapezoidal or triangular stoneprojectile point most commonly associated with the EuropeanMesolithic andNeolithic periods although it is also found in other regions and periods.[1]
Unlike a conventional arrowhead which tapers to a point, transverse arrowheads widen to a cutting edge and was hafted onto an arrow shaft at its narrowest point. Other types have parallel sides but in any case transverse arrowheads are always wider than they are long.
