This small arrow point was collected from the Hog Pen site, in Johnson County, and donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 2017. The site was a multicomponent site with occupations in both the Middle Ceramic period and again in the Historic period. This arrow point is what archeologists call corner-notched. The notches aided in hafting the point to the arrow shaft.
