Description: | Late Bronze Age socketed spearhead (incomplete). The spearhead has been broken just under the beginning of the cavity in which the shaft would have been socketed. The object is decorated with ribs and grooves radiating from the terminal point. There is some pitting on the surface. The point has been bent slightly 40.6mm below the terminal point; there is a fracture on the surface of the spear indicating this stress. In section, the spear head shows a circular middle with highly-angled points at either side. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Echtenacher, Beth - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
