Description

Late 2nd millennium BC. A massive bronze socketted spearhead, finely worked blade fitted with a strong midrib, with three strong parallel grooves tapering to the point; the socket decorated with three concentric rings. Cf. Gorelik, M., Weapons of Ancient East, IV millennium BC-IV century BC, Saint Petersburg (2003) in Russian, plate XXXIV, nos.106 and 117, for types. 556 grams, 58cm (22 3/4"). Ex Abelita family collection, 1980-2015. Parallels for this magnificent massive spearhead can be found in the Caucasus and Sub-Caucasian regions, as shown by specimens from Lchashen (Armenia) and Kornisi (south Ossetia"). The military character of these regions is well attested by their history. The Late Bronze Age confederation of Hayasa-Azzi, formed by the two kingdoms of Armenian Highlands, Hayasa located South of Trabzon and Azzi, located north of the Euphrates and to the south of Hayasa, was in continuous conflict with the Hittite Empire in the 14th century BC.
