Summary/Abstract: In this publication is presented the collection of 119 bronze tops of arrowheads from the Thracian age in the fund of the Historical Museum – Dalgopol. Due to their Diversity, I have systemised them info six main groups, with corresponding subtypes. Interesting is the collective find of 87 arrowheads discovered during the excavation of a small tombstone at the foot of Mount Arkovna. In general, this type of weaponry in Bulgaria is relatively small. Only the catalog of G. Atanasov for the Thracian weapons from the fund of RIM- Shumen. It is for this reason that I have decided to fill an empty spot in the archaeological map by supplementing and popularizing for the specialists these arrowheads and their concentration and distribution over the centuries of the Thracian age in the Dalgopol region.
