Hi Danhiman,
And welcome to our forums. This item doubtlessly shows the type of a Bronze Age sword , ca. 2200 to 1200 BC, with an unusually high content of copper in the brass alloy forming the bronze. Whether it's a copy of an original item or not I am not able to tell from the images. The double scroll pommel is, as Gene has pointed out, of a rare form diverging from the antenna type. Best, Michael |
