ENG_This photo was made from hundreds of arrowheads found in the basement of a house in Truxton (USA). This area is native territory, next to the Onondaga Nation in Syracuse. We don’t know exactly where they came from or why they were there and what era are they from. We don’t know how old they are, and if they are, we don’t know if they were used for hunting or protection. We don’t know anything, but they are still here. These are all questions, but at the same time these arrowheads are present and speak. What if we decided to listen to them? What can they tell us?

*Actually, these arrowheads were returned to the local indigenous people of the Onondaga Nation in Syracuse.
