BEAUTIFUL SPEAR TIM, EVEN I DON'T HAVE A COPPER BLADED SPEAR

I NOTICED IN THE SECOND PICTURE OF SPEAR TYPES IN THE LOWER LINE IN THE CENTER THERE IS ONE THAT HAS A BELL ATTACHED TO THE BUTT OF THE SPEAR. DO MANY TRIBES HAVE THAT TYPE OF SPEAR AND WHAT IS IT FOR? SOME OF MY GUESSES HAVE BEEN FOR DANCING AND MAKING A NOISE,OR IF A ANIMAL HAS BEEN SPEARED IN THE BUSH TO TRACK IT FROM THE NOISE FROM THE BELL.
