Large spearhead.

I didn't find it, my cousin did.
Was told

it was from ~3500 BC!

That's an awesome find!

The asymmetry suggests that this was a knife, rather than a spear point.

Interesting, would there have been a handle attached?

Here are mine. I found the small ones In the match box for 10 cents at goodwill with a bunch of other match boxes With matches in them. I don’t think they realized the arrow heads. The large one my dad gave to me years ago

String would have tied it to a handle

Or maybe gut or rawhide rather than string?

Nice looking piece either way. Most people couldn't draw something that symmetrical (let alone knap it). Cool find!

I will sometimes make arrowheads just to see how close to the Indian style ones I can get.

...Or maybe gut or rawhide rather than string?...

Correct, and often coupled with pitch or asphaltum as a gap filling adhesive. The handles were usually made of bone. Most of the larger pieces like yours were used as knives as Harry mentioned. There were far more uses for knives than for projectile points in and around camps and villages.

Side notched. Probably a knife or spear. Most arrow heads or bird points are small under an inch. What state and county? That is a quality artifact. Archaic! You should have it authenticated. I am going to post pictures of my early archaic Garth Slough rear notched 7000-9000 years old with certificate of authenticity from Tony Putty, T&T Archaeological consulting, llc. I believe the last time I checked it costs $25 to get certificate. If not certifiable you get the item and $10 back.
