Title |
Bronze Age spear |
||
Description |
English: Tip of narrow copper-alloy spearhead which is curiously curved and must have been bent in antiquity. There is no trace of the socket, but as the fragment is only 32 mm long and 9 mm max wide this is perhaps not surprising. The tip curves smoothly from the break at the wider end (neither particularly old nor particularly new) to a sharp tip, and there is no hint of stress to the metal. The bend is almost all in one plane - side-to-side - with only a very slight hint of a front-to-back curve. The edges are sharp, and there is a rounded midrib; in section the spearhead tip is lozengiform with incurved sides to the lozenge. Shiny dark brown patina. Length 32 mm, maximum width 9 mm, maximum thickness 5 mm. |
