Spear, Metal2007-136/1

Metal spear, with a heavily corroded iron blade, and a braided two-color copper wire handle/haft. Research on spears suggests that it most closely resembles a Zulu "Iklwa" stabbing spear. This is puzzling since the spear was dug up on a high bluff on Bainbridge Island. Mr. Enright, the property owner said that no non-natives had lived at that site until his family purchased the property.

Material
copper metal and iron metal
