A fine selection of Anatolian cast bronze flat arrowheads, each featuring a subtle leaf-shape with some displaying a more angular blade. The arrowheads present a central raised mid-rib, and a tang which gradually narrows into a point. Earthly encrustations to the surfaces.
Anatolia, also known in antiquity as Asia Minor, was located in the Anatolian Peninsula, part of modern Turkey today. It is one of the first regions to have boasted bronze production, much like Luristan culture in the Near East. Arrowheads of similar style were popular across Transcaucasian civilisations, dating from the 1st millennium onwards, and have been recovered in burials’ excavations.
Measurements: Circa L 5.5cm - 8.3cm
