Harpoon

Antler harpoon is pointed at each end; one tip is broken. There is a small carved loop near the broken end. One side is straight; on the other there are four evenly-spaced barbs that curve back toward the loop. The surface of the harpoon is pitted and is flaking off on one side, exposing the interior of the antler. It curves slightly, following the natural shape of the antler.
