The point is intact but no surviving trace of barbs, shaft apparently long and narrow, terminating in split socket, bottom broken off apparently. The present end of shaft may have had an iron band around it, c. 4cm broad, to reinforce the socket, and this band seems to have been inlaid with bronze. Traces of bronze survive suggest a broad bronze band near base, and perhaps another near top. But whole thing too far gone to be certain of exact nature of inlays.cf. Arch.Cant. VII, pl, xiv, no. vi for original sketch.
