Spear

Spear with a long, thin blade that flares slightly toward the base. The blade has a medial ridge that flattens sharply toward the edges. The blade is secured to the wooden spear shaft with a light-colored leather wrapping with short leather tassels and a woven sleeve of light and dark basketry and leather. The lower end of the spear mimics these wrappings above the ferrule. The center of the shaft is covered with a basketry sleeve of light and dark fibers. The butt end terminates in a short, metal ferrule with circumferal bands etched above a flared, flattened, fin-like end.
