Middle Bronze Age bronze leaf shaped sword
The fragment consists of the upper part of the blade and a handle-plate with four rivet holes, in which two rivets remain. The blade is of lenticular section with a flattened midrib and consists of two fragments joined. There is frequent and repeated notching along the upper blade surfaces, which indicates deliberate destruction and breakage of sword notches.
