Archeologists from Secrets of the Ice, a glacial archaeology program of Norway’s Department of Cultural Heritage, have discovered a Stone Age arrow shaft on the side of Mount Lauvhøe in Norway. The group surveyed the melting ice on Mount Lauvhøe in 2017 and found a number of Iron Age arrows, but the oldest were around 1,700 years old. This is the first Stone Age artifact discovered at the site.
