Ca. AD 800 - 1100A Viking iron bearded axe head with a heavy blade and a socket. Contrary to popular belief, the most commonly used weapon in antiquity was not the sword but the battle-axe. In fact, this weapon had enormous advantages over the more emblazoned sword.Firstly, the axe was easier to make, much more resistant during clashes and did not risk to breaking on the first impact. Moreover, the blows that were given with this weapon were extremely powerful, and this was due to the weight of the axe itself in comparison with the sword. Last but not least, the axe could also be used to chop and split wood, which was an extremely important and everyday activity in the ancient world.Size: 170mm x 150mm; Weight: 960gProvenance: Property of an Oxfordshire art professional; previously in an old Canadian collection of F.
