Ancient Spears.



Spears was one of the most importants weapons. Without any spears, hoplites could not fight in battles. The spears we're almost about 9 feet long, leaf-shaped iron head, sharp spike at the butt. The reason for the spike is that if the spear head breaks, they could always turn the spear around & use the sharp spike. Both spear & shieds were very important to battles with enemies. The spear is double-edged sword with a straight blade.
