A Late Bronze Age bronze spearhead refers to a type of weapon that was used during the Late Bronze Age, which lasted from around 1600 BCE to 1200 BCE in the Holy Land and other parts of the world. Bronze spearheads were commonly used by warriors and hunters during this period.

Late Bronze Age spearheads were typically made of bronze, an alloy primarily composed of copper with the addition of tin or other metals. Bronze was highly valued for its strength and durability, making it an ideal material for weapons.

The design of a Late Bronze Age spearhead varied depending on the region and cultural influences. However, they typically featured a leaf-shaped blade with a central midrib or ridge running down the center. This design provided structural strength and allowed for effective piercing and cutting. The spearheads would have been attached to wooden shafts using various methods, such as socketed or tanged designs.

Late Bronze Age bronze spearheads have been found in archaeological excavations across the Holy Land and other areas influenced by the Bronze Age cultures. They were widely used by civilizations such as the Mycenaeans, Hittites, Egyptians, and others.

These spearheads played a significant role in warfare, hunting, and as symbols of status and power.
