interested in the age and a place or origin
Of course interested. Ideas? Comments?
By the way, another theory I have had a couple people express, consistent with Rick's comment, is that this was intended to just discharge on impact with a target to augment the effect of the spear blade. One person likened it to a "bangstick", a spear with a shotgun shell used by divers to fend off a shark. The shell is discharged when you shove the spear against the shark.
