The wooden remains found in T6 and T7 tumuli and “Three-Room Building” complex of Acrodaskyleion are the subject of the study. These samples were found in the sockets of copper alloy arrowheads in T6 Tumulus. Also, another sample was found in a bullet covered tenon on a marble block in the T7 Tumulus. Anatomical examination on wooden samples, the arrows was made of poplar/willow. The wooden specimen found in the tenon belongs to the Black pine, the genera/species identified are the common trees in the region. Black pine is the main forest tree, which have a wide natural distribution area, and poplar/willow grow through the rivers in the region. As conclusion, the types of wood processed were selected according to its function. The tenon was made by black pine which is more resistant to external deteriorations. The wooden part of the arrows is made of low density and flexible poplar/willow wood.
