Dark-brown barbed spear with a shape reminiscent of a stylized evergreen tree. Forming a point at the top, a barb extends down on either side in an inverted "V" shape, repeating for two-thirds of the spear before it transitions to a rectangular shaft with a hole at the lower edge. Corroded, the coarse metal is occasionally a dark-brown, and occasionally more of a dark-yellow-brown.
