Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $150**

Ancient Near East, Luristan, ca. 1200 to 800 BCE. A lost wax cast bronze spearhead with a long, triangular blade with gentle sloping shoulders, a thick, pronounced mid-rib, and a square tang with a slightly curved tip. A thick projection forms a guard above the blade. The style of the spearhead is probably a variation on the Type III (which has wide variety) from Marlik, a major archaeological site associated with Luristan - a mound that contained at least fifty-three tombs. Within these tombs, researchers found a large number of bronze spearheads, which they have theorized were very popular weapons for Marlik's warriors, who lived in a forested, mountainous region. Size: 11.25" L x 1.75" W (28.6 cm x 4.4 cm)

Provenance: Whisnant Gallery, New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, acquired over twenty years ago
