An exceptionally sturdy spearhead cast in one piece. Triangular blade with wide flat midrib and wide square shoulders. The shoulder flanges are decorated with incised stripes (skeuomorphism). A strong neck ends in a splayed decorative stop-ridge. The tang terminates in a hammered spherical 'button-ended hook' for secure hafting.
This bridges the technological gap between the Bronze Age tang-hafted tradition and the Iron Age socketed standard. The skeuomorphic decoration demonstrates how functional features of one era become decorative motifs in the next.
