In the Antiquarian Museum at Edinburgh are some spear-heads of this character, with the openings on the blade rather longer in proportion. One was found in the bottom of a cairn at Highfield, Urray, near Dingwall, Ross-shire.[1291] Others were found in Roxburghshire and Stirlingshire. Some of the spear-heads of this type which have been found in Ireland are highly ornamented. A very fine specimen given by Wilde (Fig. 374) has several mouldings with a kind of cable pattern upon them. Others have circular perforations in addition to the lunate openings; and in one instance the socket is decorated with bands and vertical lines (Wilde, Fig. 372). A small lance-head from Jelabugy, Russia,[1292] with comparatively large crescent-shaped openings in the blade, has been figured by Worsaae. The cut for Fig. 421 is kindly lent me by the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland. The original, 19 inches long, was found with a bronze sword at Denhead, Cupar-Angus, Forfarshire,[1293] and has unfortunately been somewhat broken. [Illustration: Fig. 421.—Denhead. ¼] [Illustration: Fig. 422.—Speen. ½] As will be seen, there are ten circular holes, besides two long crescents. The socket is said by Professor Daniel Wilson to contain a thin rod or core of iron, which was inserted in the mould to strengthen this unusually large weapon; but what seemed to Dr. Wilson to be an iron rod is really a piece of wood that has been recently inserted when the spear-head was mended. In the last class into which these weapons are here divided, are placed those which are barbed at the base of the blade, or in very rare instances are square at that part. A good typical example (10-7/12 inches) is shown in Fig. 422, from an original found at Speen, Berks.[1294] It is very heavy, weighing 11¾ ozs. troy, or more than ¾ lb. avoirdupois. Another of the same size, but lighter (8 ozs.), was found in the Severn, near Worcester.[1295] Another (10¾ inches), found in the Plaistow Marshes, Essex, and now in the British Museum, has a rivet of bronze 2⅜ inches in length still in the rivet-hole. Curiously enough this long rivet appears to be a speciality of this class of weapons. Some of this type, together with some fragments twisted and adhering together as if partially molten, were found in the Thames at Kingston,[1296] and in one of them was the bronze rivet. These are now in the British Museum. Some broken barbed spear-heads of larger size (about 14 inches), also with the rivets still in position, were found with bronze ferrules at a spot called “Bloody Pool,” South Brent, Devon.[1297] Another (7 inches), found at Pendoylan, near Cardiff, Glamorganshire,[1298] has an oval socket pierced on one side for a rivet, which, however, is wanting. Canon Greenwell, F.R.S., possesses an example much like that from Speen (10⅞ inches) found in Yorkshire, near the river Humber.
