Hi Chris
after some difficulties ... HERE WE ARE
KHARTOUM SANA 1123 H. either
KHARTOUM YEAR 1711 A.C.
DOREBA B OMDOUMAN either
MADE IN OMDOURMAN
no mention about "tomb" ... "shrine" ... sorry
I don't guess that the date is related with fabrication
- the date has to be linked with Khartoum
- Omdouran linked with the place of blacksmith
no more ... at least, it's my point of view
very nice "épée"
à +
Dom
