Bronze dagger

Length 13.8 cm, maximum width 4.9 cm
Final Bronze-Early Iron, c. 10th-8th cent. BCE.
The Nuragic object comes from a rich storage within a lithic cyst, found in the village-sanctuary of Abini in 1865. The stab has a foliate-shaped blade with a central rib, two holes at the base, and a tang for keying. The surface is decorated with thin longitudinal parallel incised lines. The weapon constitutes an ex voto and can be dated between the 10th and 8th centuries B.C. (Late Bronze-Early Iron).
