“Finding a complete arrow is really unusual!”

Don’t I know it! I was beside myself when I uncovered it and the feather Fletchings and bindings were still there! It only had about a half inch of light talc like cave dust on it. Just enough to protect it from the elements. What drew me to it was the point was just sticking out slightly from the dust. As I pinched the point to pull it out it was locked firm when it should not have been and that told me it was attached to something more. So I gently uncovered it little by little and was flabbergasted that it was whole. How it didn’t get eaten by bacteria and enzymes I have no clue. Maybe that it was in such a very dry environment I guess.
