From what I understand spears popularity comes from

1. Being the easiest weapon to craft in prehistory, get a stick and sharpen the end to a point, add some plant fiber for a grip and boom you have one of mans earliest killing tools.
2. Spears have a great reach and can target pinpoint locations
3. With proper technique you can throw them as a limited range weapon
4. Can be wielded easily while managing a shield
