Item Details

Description

Ancient Near East, Luristan, ca. 1000 BCE. This is a cast bronze, socketed spear with a pronounced rib along its triangular spear body. The rib organically becomes the narrow socket.

This is a fine example of one of their signature weapons. Size: 13.2" L x 1.55" W (33.5 cm x 3.9 cm)
