Objects in our collection that have killed Sean Bean – a thread.

Happy #YorkshireDay everyone.
In Lord of The Rings, Sean is shot with arrows!

We have these lint arrowheads found in an Early Bronze Age barrow near Scarborough. The central tang would have attached to a wooden arrow shaft and the barbs ensured the arrow stayed in the prey, causing maximum damage!
In The Field, Sean is driven off a cliff by a herd of stampeding cattle…

We have the wonderful Pat the Giant, reputed to be the largest and heaviest beast ever produced in this country at 254 stone!
In Game of Thrones, Sean is beheaded by a sword!

We have the Cawood Sword (AD 1080–1120)– Its hilt and pommel are reminiscent of Viking weaponry but the length of the blade and the curved guard echo the style of later medieval swords.
In Airborne Sean dies from a pistol shot to the chest!

We have this Flintlock boxlock pistol, 1770-1820. Calibre approximately .500
In Black Death, Sean is quartered by horses!

We have this sculpture by Louis de Monard (1873 – 1939): Bronze Horse, date unknown. Donated by the Mayor of Dijon, York’s twin city in France.
In War Requiem, Sean is pierced by a bayonet!

We have this bayonet (1660-1710), with the pommel in the shape of a man's head.
In Patriot Games, Sean is impaled on an anchor!

We have this cute WWI-era postcard...
