Spontoon

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Silver-colored metal spearhead with a triangular shape and a long, pointed tip. The spearhead has an engraved design featuring a cross within a circle surrounded by floral patterns. A short section of the handle is visible, made of a light brown woven material resembling straw or fiber, and a small portion of the metal base of the handle is visible where it meets the spearhead. The background is a plain gray color. The spearhead is titled "Spontoon" by an unknown artist.
