Description
Description
This slender bronze projectile dates to the 1st century AD and likely served as the tip of a Roman javelin (pilum) or thrusting spear. With its long, leaf-shaped blade and pronounced central ridge, it was designed for deep penetration and precision. The tapered tang ensured secure attachment to a wooden shaft, ideal for both throwing and close combat.
Such weapons were used by Roman soldiers during battles and sieges across the empire, including in Judea during the early New Testament period.
Length:14.2 cm / 5.59 inches
Biblical Significance: This weapon type would have been used by Roman forces active in Judea during the time of Jesus and the early church, and possibly during the First Jewish Revolt (66–73 AD).
