Ancient Luristan Bronze / Copper Spear Butts

Item Details

Description

Ancient Near East, Northwestern Iran / Turkey, Luristan, late Bronze to early Iron Age, ca. 2000 to 600 BCE. A pair of cast copper and bronze spear feet (butts), both cast with pyramidal shaped heads and a hollow tubular socket. The longer point is decorated with applied discs and a coiled rope-like texture along the socket. The smaller butt is simpler, the thick point widening into a cylinder that has an intact hafting pin attached just inside the socket rim; this rivet would have secured the butt to a wooden pole that has long since decayed. These were once attached to the end of the pole to protect the spear shaft from splitting and to stand the weapon upright in the ground. Size of longer spear: 10.5" L x 0.9" W (26.7 cm x 2.3 cm)

Provenance: private Everett, Massachusetts, USA collection, purchased December 10, 2017 (shorter) and April 25, 2020 (longer); (shorter): ex-Palmyra Heritage, New York, USA; ex-collection of Robert Thompson, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, acquired in the 1960s
