Description: | The tip fragment of a bronze spearhead. Measuring 42.17mm in surviving length and 14.34mm in width, at the widest surviving point. This spearhead has been severly affected by invasive corrosion, no original edges survive and there is only about 70% of the surface surviving on one face and 20% on the other. The tip of the spearhead is missing. It has a prominent mid-rib with concave blade faces on either side. These blade faces have a medium brown patina. Elsewhere the spearhead is pale green in colour, due to corrosion products. This spearhead is middle or late Bronze Age in date, c1500-800BC. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
