Nando, por favor, contribute with a witty remark strong on levity.
: ) IIRC, the swords from Luristan were made from copper alloys. An interesting addendum is that they were supossedly better than the iron swords, their downfall being that they were much more expensive and slow to make. Manoucher should be able to expound on that. Reminds me of the initial superiority of the compound bow over the flintlock. Economics also won the day then, and likewise, the flintlock was developed to the point of superiority over bow. BR M Quote:
