Description: | Cast copper alloy socketed spearhead tip of uncertain type and of Middle to Late Bronze Age date (c. 1450-600 BC). The spearhead has broken off near the bottom of the socket, with the last 3mm evident. The spearhead is comparatively slender and has a pronounced central longitudinal rib, so that it is broadly sub-lozenge shaped in section. One blade edge is almost complete but heavily worn and narrows slightly towards the socket. The other blade edge is damaged but would most likely have originally mirrored the opposite blade edge. Patchy mid-green patina.L. 61.22mm. W. 19.91-1.72mm. Th. 7.53-1.82mm. Wt. 13.48g.
