A comparable bronze arrowhead in the Metropolitan Museum of Art has a leaf-shaped blade, a central midrib and a tang. The museum attributes it to Greek or Achaemenid production and dates it to the 6th–4th century BCE or later (object 26.199.291).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe British Museum records another leaf-shaped bronze arrowhead, with a midrib, socket and single barb, dated 675–400 BCE (object 1975,0605.78). Its catalogue discusses parallels across Anatolia and the Ionian cities. These examples show that related forms circulated across the Greek world and its eastern neighbours, with different methods of attachment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Archaeopolis piece is a modern jewellery interpretation of the arrowhead form. The museum objects provide comparative archaeological context; they do not establish this pendant as an exact replica of a particular excavated find.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCollection references\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/252854\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art — Bronze arrowhead, 26.199.291\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.britishmuseum.org\/collection\/object\/G_1975-0605-78\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBritish Museum — Arrow-head, 1975,0605.78\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Archaeopolis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55305595486537,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1032\/3476\/5129\/files\/codex-clipboard-654eacb4-52ec-4dc9-b53d-d55b26ffcca4.jpg?v=1789060130","url":"https:\/\/shop.archaeopolis.gr\/products\/ancient-greek-arrowhead-pendant","provider":"Archaeopolis","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
