TL;DR: In this paper, a study of arrow heads from Predynastic and early Dynastic Egyptian tombs has produced a number of examples with heads made of bone, worked stone and fish mandibles which are exact replicas of forms of arrowhead recovered from epi-Palaeolithic and later contexts in Africa as a whole.
Abstract: A study of arrows in various museums coming from Predynastic and early Dynastic Egyptian tombs, has produced a number of
examples with heads made of bone, worked stone and fish mandibles which are exact replicas of forms of arrowhead recovered
from epi-Palaeolithic and later contexts in Africa as a whole. A proposed classification of these arrow types is presented -
including also metal arrowheads - which demonstrates the relevance of the ancient Egyptian examples for African prehistory and
also the general continuity of the main forms of arrowhead throughout the continent, from the Later Stone Age to comparatively
recent times.
