Small spearhead with a long leaf-shaped blade which is slightly curved to one side. The circular-sectioned socket is pierced by a single rivet hole. The three spearheads (Fig 10.12 Nos 278-80) belong to the category commonly referred to as 'leaf-shaped', a rather general term which covers most Roman spearheads. Number 279 is typically small, 'leaf-shaped' spear, with a drawn-out point. The slender blade would make it suitable for thrusting. Condition: Tip missing.
