Description: | A corroded lower fragment from a Middle Bronze Age socketed spear head with side loops. The blade is missing and there is a considerable loss from the socket end on one face. The side loops are small, corroded and abraded; one has broken through. There is a further hole on one of the faces by the intact side loop. There is a casting seam along the lines of the side loops. The base has a maximum diameter of 13.3mm; the spearhead tapers to a maximum diameter of 9.6mm at the break. The object has corroded to a dull mid-green patina with areas of lighter and more intense corrosion product where pitting has occurred. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
