Title
BLADE
Description
English:

An incomplete cast copper-alloy Bronze Age reworked blade, possibly reworked into an arrowhead, dating to the period 1500-1150 BC. It measures 39.58mm in length and 13.14mm in width. It is 1.86mm thick and weighs 2.92g. The blade is lozengeform in cross section but narrows to a flat oval shape on the end. The lower end of the blade appears to have been rewored and projects into a tang that narrows from the blade edge (12.9mm wide) to the break (6.35mm).
