Hi, as French, I had to meet the challenge
and propose some pictures of Mameluke Empire period
... and weapons ...
it is not easy ... as the iconography on this subject is poor

there is NO such guarantee about the authenticity for what I found ...

hope so that represent a part of realty, and none a part of "romanticism" ...

should be (?) extracted from
" VOYAGES DANS LA BASSE ET LA HAUTE ÉGYPTE, PENDANT LES CAMPAGNES DE BONAPARTE, EN 1798 ET 1799. "
Par Vivant Denon
