This is an example of a similar spear / lance from my own collection .. I always had it down as Sudanese , but would also welcome opinions .
It is 190 cm long , blade inc socket is 50 cm with the greatest blade length being 9 cm . The butt is a flattened almost fish tail shape . |

The top one will find a new home in the coming months, however the spear and shield make for a very dramatic display in the dining room. Gav |
