Polearms 129
by Frauke Stein and Jozef Zábojník,194 who considered the spearheads from
grave No. 77 from Čataj195 (fig. 49/1) and grave No. 777 from Devínska Nová Ves196
(fig. 49/2) as belonging to this group. However, according to these attributes,
neither of these spearheads belong to the Pfullingen type (fig. 49/3), since its
main criteria (the quadrangular cross section of the socket and the rivets with
hemispherical head) does not appear on them. The spearheads of Pfullingen
type are distributed only in southwestern Germany and Bavaria.197
The quadrangular cross section of the socket only appears on the spearhead
from grave No. 131 at Košice–Šebastovce (fig. 47/1), which is extremely long
(39.2 cm) and has a flat blade, but has proportions totally different from that
