Description: I was climbing up toward the only extant room of the old Moorish castle when I found this tiny quartz arrowhead set almost against the sheer cliff face. One thing I forgot to depict is how thin it is; it’s delicate and feels as though it could be broken easily in one’s fingers. I regret that I haven’t a scale to record its almost non-weight.

Notable is that it’s already broken. When viewing its bi-colored side (half-iron, half-quartz), notice the bottom-left corner of the item doesn’t match is bottom-right counterpart on a horizontal line; the break-line is white, which suggests that relatively recent trauma (rather than time) caused the break.
