Title
Bronze Age spearhead
Description
English: A fragment of a copper alloy spearhead, dating to the middle or late Bronze Age (1200-800BC). Only the tip of the spearhead remains, which is triangular in shape, and lozenge in cross section with a worn midrib. The break is worn. An insufficient amount of the spear remains to prove diagnostic, therefore a specific type cannot be attributed. The tip has a light green patina. The fragment measures 19.6mm in length, 8.2mm in width, and 4.9mm in thickness. It weighs 1.44g.
