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!
