Hunting Spears

These hunting spears are kept in the North exhibit room of the River's Rest Museum. They may be similar to the ones depicted in the Boar Hunt Tapestry.

A closer look

The spears have peculiar, leaf-shaped blades with a crossbar about a foot beneath the point of the blade. Beside one of the spears is a plaque reading, 'Hunting Spears, circa 4100 M.E.'
