Hello All!
In the book "African Arm and Armour" on Pg.23 first paragraph about the Evil Eye it says "Secondly, to reflect or dazzle the envious gaze by means of a small mirror, or other bright polished object such as a coin or button. An image of the eye itself may also be used in this role." I think that is what the circle design might mean. The outer circle representing the cornea of the eye the inner circle representing the retina of the eye and the dot representing the pupil. Chould the desighns on the blade possibly give a tribal group? Please forgive me if my parts of the eye are wrong but I have not been in health class for a while. Mark... P.S.-Is a Barbary Coast 'Corsair' a type of ship or is it the a crewman, I forgot and now it's bugging me. Last edited by Aurangzeb; 1st September 2005 at 03:44 AM. |
