The Greek spearhead was the integral part of the principal weapon of the Hoplite- a heavily armed foot soldier whose principal weapon was "the long shadowed spear." It was a weapon that varied in length from 6 to 18 feet, and could be used both as spear and pike. Shorter versions were used as throwing weapons. The earlier versions were made of bronze, but iron, once it was available, became the material of choice for the Greek spearhead.
