Germanic spearhead/frame



Reconstruction of a Germanic marco (spearhead), based on finds from around the 1st to 5th century AD. in the area of ​​southern Germany. The marco (from Latin framea) is a Germanic javelin similar to the Franconian ango. However, it differs significantly from Tacitus Germanic, which describes the marco as a relatively light spear. It was very popular among Germanic tribes and was used both as a projectile and for fencing in hand-to-hand combat. This can be traced by cut marks on spear shafts that have been preserved in finds from Nordic moorlands.



Our replica is hand forged from a single piece of carbon steel. The cutting edge is slightly sharpened. The spearhead is deliberately not polished to a high shine. The visible hammer marks caused by forging give the spear blade a very rustic and authentic look.
