Roman Trilobate Bronze Arrowhead | Auxiliary Archers | Time of Jesus Artifact (1st Century AD)

These trilobate bronze arrowheads were used by Roman Auxiliary Archers stationed throughout Judea during the 1st century AD, the same historical period as the life of Jesus.

Auxiliary archers were recruited from the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire, where archery traditions were highly developed and widely relied upon in military campaigns across the Holy Land.

The distinctive trilobate, three-bladed design improved penetration and flight stability, making these arrowheads especially effective in combat. Bronze examples such as these are particularly valued today, as most Roman military arrowheads from this period were made of iron and rarely survive in comparable condition.

Authentic battlefield relics from the Roman presence in the Holy Land, these arrowheads provide a direct connection to the military landscape of Judea during the time of Jesus. A meaningful artifact suitable for collectors of Biblical-era antiquities and Roman military history.

Length: 3 cm (1.18 inches)

These trilobate arrowheads date to the Early Roman Period, 1st century AD, during the time of Jesus, when Roman Auxiliary Archer units operated across Judea to support legionary forces, secure trade routes, and maintain imperial control throughout the region.

Crafted from bronze, these arrowheads reflect a long eastern Mediterranean tradition of bronze projectile weaponry that continued alongside iron examples during the Roman period. The trilobate form strengthened the structure of the arrowhead while improving penetration and durability in use.
