We have in our collections two metal arrow points recovered from
a burial in New London, Connecticut.  They appear to be of European
manufacture.  My best guess based on my understanding of the history
of the area is that they are probably seventeenth century, possibly
Dutch or English.
 
Their identity is important, as they are subject to repatriation.
The time and location of their manufacture has implications for the
possible affiliation of the human remains with which they were
associated.  Are there any experts out there whom I could prevail
upon to identify these points?  Any help is greatly appreciated!
