=== Arrow head development ===
There is no easy way to categorise broad-headed arrow heads into leaf-shaped or shouldered (angular) shapes. Many arrowheads do not easily fall into either category. [HALPIN 2008:p.81-85]. Leaf shaped and tanged very common in Scandinavia [OTTAWAY 1992:p.711]. Later C11th appears an abrupt change to socketed elongated tapering heads (bodkins). [OTTAWAY 1992:p.714]
