These arrowheads come from the Classical period of Greek arrowhead production, spanning circa 480-223 BC. Arrows were integral to ancient Greek warfare throughout the sprawling history of this civilisation, with arrowheads of this type in use at major battles such as Plataea and Thermopylae in the Greco-Persian Wars. While the formation-based phalanx movement is perhaps the most famous element of Greek warfare, arrows and archers were often used in attempt to pierce the phalanx itself.
