One of much the same form as the figure (11 inches) was found at Teigngrace,[1206] Devon. It has a delicate bead running down each side of the midrib, and continued as a square projection below the blade.
Canon Greenwell has a long spear-head (14½ inches) from Quy Fen, with grooves running up the blade at the side of the socket. The ends of the blade are truncated so as to leave projections on the sides of the socket above the rivet-hole. These are slightly ornamented.
I have seen another spear-head (11½ inches) with the base of the blade slightly truncated in a similar manner. It was found near Eastbourne.
This elongated form is of common occurrence in Denmark and Northern Germany,[1207] the necks being usually ornamented by delicate punch-marking or possibly engraving.
A broader variety, with the socket considerably enlarged in the part extending below the blade, is shown in Fig. 385. The original was found in company with other spear-heads like Fig. 382 from 5⅝ inches to 10⅝ inches long, two socketed celts with three vertical lines on the face like Fig. 125, and two somewhat conical plates with central holes, near Newark, and is in the collection of Canon Greenwell, F.R.S.
A spear-head (6½ inches) not quite so broad in its proportions, said to have been found in a tumulus, near Lewes,[1208] Sussex, is in the British Museum, as is another (6½ inches) found near Bakewell, Derbyshire.
A spear-head of the same general outline as Fig. 385, but with the sides of the socket straighter, was found with others, as well as with 16 socketed celts, a knife, fragments of swords and of a quadrangular tube (qy. a scabbard?) and a long ferrule, near Nottingham.[1209]
