Anglo-Saxon Iron Socketted Spearhead
Item Details
Description
6th-8th century A.D. Lentoid-section narrow blade with thick shoulder, closed socket; Swanton's Group I2. Cf. Swanton, M.J. Spearheads of the Anglo-Saxon Settlements, London, 1973, fig.47. Exhibited at Harwich Museum, Harwich, Essex, UK, 14th March-9th June 2024; accompanied by a copy of a photograph of the artefact on display. 159 grams, 26 cm (10 1/4 in.).

Found near Wetwang, East Yorkshire, UK. Acquired circa 2005. Ian Wilkinson collection, Nottinghamshire, UK.

The spear-heads of group I2 belong to a larger number of blades with more slender and regularly curved leaf-shapes than previous types. The majority present profiles more regularly curved from junction to tip, the broader part of the blade near the middle, with the fuller comformably longer. All of the group are much of the length varying between some 25 and 35 cm. [No Reserve]
