Description: It is a little known but well established fact that American Indians were taught iron forging and provided with forges and equipment at Indian Agencies. Following the Winnebago War of 1827, a policy, part of the greater effort to bring peace and a degree of assimilation, was to establish such shops and train Indians. See https://digitalcommons.liberty.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1039&context=ljh While this scholarly work by Liberty University concentrates on the shop at Fort Winnebago, Wisconsin, it repeatedly mentions that other shops are known and that their existence and function has been largely ignored. This is a rare example iron arrowhead produced by Indians in North Central America, about 1850. It is over 1 ½” (1.57”) long, of thick form with beveled edges and short tang.
