The paper is analyzing an artefact discovered in the Roman auxiliary of Arcobadara (today's Ilişua, Romania) on the northern frontier of the province of Dacia. This artefact represents a symbolic spearhead discovered on in an archaeological context belonging to the first phase of the earthen fort. The blade is strengthened on the edge with a bronze band that is ending on the lower part with two rings that symbolize the 'eyes' of a beneficiaries spear. The analogies that are almost identic to the piece under study come from Albertfalva and Gerulata in Pannoniaand from Regensburg in Rhaetia.
