According to the Bible what weapons was the Philistine giant Goliath carrying when he was slain by David?

1 Samuel 17:7 says that Goliath carried a spear that was like a weaver's beam, when he was killed by David. This description was the same as the spear that Goliath was carrying when Elhanan killed him, in 2 Samuel 21:19 (The Hebrew Bible in English, JPS 1917 Edition), although the King James Version renders this as the brother of Goliath, with "the brother of " in italics to show that it was not a true translation.

Was Goliath's head buried at Golgotha?
There is absolutely no source literature, not from the Early Church Fathers or any other source, which states that Goliath's head was buried at Golgotha. And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent. 1.Sam 17,54 According to this scripture, the head of Goliath was brought to Jerusalem. What happened to the head after this is never mentioned.
Why did david cut off goliath's head?
Your answer, to show it to Saul, would be incorrect. At that time Saul was with the army where the battle took place, at the Valley of Elah. He would have seen David slaying Goliath. [1 Samuel 17] Jerusalem at the time was still a Jebusite city, not a city of Israel. Jerusalem was not taken until after Saul had died and after David had been made King of Israel [in 2 Samuel 2]. [Jerusalem was not captured until 2 Samuel 5.]
What obstacles did david face as he fought Goliath?

What would have happened if David failed to hit Goliath's forehead?
This question misses the point of the narrative. David's ability to hit Goliath was not dependent on David having good aim or precision. The narrative makes clear that God is the reason for his success. However, from a political standpoint, the confrontation between David and Goliath was a "hero battle". In the ancient period, it was believed that God or the gods decided the outcome of a massive battle, so instead of wasting all of the men and weapons on launching such a massive campaign, they would have two heroes fight for power. If the Philistines had won the "hero battle", they would likely have gained critical lands along the western ridge of the Judean Highlands, such as the area around Beersheba today.
