Description: | A bronze blade tip, probably from a sword, measuring 24.5mm in length, 21mm in width and 4mm thick. The tip is slightly rounded as are the edges of the blade. The cross-section has a rounded mid-rib with faint side channels and edge bevels. The blade tip is slightly twisted from the side view. It has a dark brown/green patina, which is also on the break edge, which shows no sign of deliberate hammer damage. This probable sword tip is most likely to be late Bronze Age in date. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | -1000
