Description: | Middle Bronze Age rapier fragment of Burgess and Gerloff Group IV ( The Dirks and Rapiers of Great Britain and Ireland, Pr??historische Bronzefund IV 7 ). It measures 22.3x16.2x(max)3.8mm and weighs 7.20g. All breaks are ancient.
The rapier has a broad flat mid-rib and much of the patina is lost. The surface is worn and pitted.
Rapiers date to the Middle Bronze Age but fragments are often found in Late Bronze Age hoards, suggesting continued use. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Hinds, Katie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
