Description: | Copper alloySpearhead fragment. Cast lozenge-shaped mid rib and the slightly tapered stubs of the blade of a spear head, probably from fairly close to the tip. The break at the wider end appears fairly recent, that towards the tip is more probably ancient damage. Heavily abraded. The angular section and prominent rib might both associate this with the side looped spear heads of the Middle Bronze Age; examples displayed at the NorthLincolnshireMuseum come from Waddingham, Scawby and Messingham. Suggested date: Middle Bronze Age, 1500-1100 BC.Length: 48.9mm, Width: 12.6mm, Thickness: 7.4mm, Weight: 13.22gms.
