Ancient Persia Luristan Bronze Arrow Head, circa 1300 - 600 BC

Ancient Luristan Bronze Arrow Head, circa 1300 - 600 BC.
This elongated triangular shaped arrowhead features a raised mid rib extending to a tang, which was to be inserted into a wooden shaft to form the complete arrow projectile. It showcases light brown earthly encrustations and a natural light green patination on the bronze, testament to the objects’ prolonged burial underground prior to excavation.

Measurements: 10.5cm x 2.5cm
