Another one
Hello,
Just bought another one, thank to help from Sajen who put me in contac with the seller. This appears to be a camel head (??). The reason I show it is that it has a cross on the blade, showing that it was probably owned a Christian. Not surprising since Christian Arabs live on both sides of the Israel/Lebanon border, often in mixed villages of Cristian, Muslems and Druze sharing the same language and material culture. So this does not necessarily mean that these are Christian dagges. Still, it is always nice to have any identifying marks on a piece.
