India, early Vedic Period, ca. 1500 to 1200 BCE. This is a large copper dagger with an "antennae" style pommel and a prominent ridge. It was made in a society that was experiencing vast waves of migration and dynamic social change; the era is so named because it was when the Vedas, the oldest scriptures in Hinduism, were composed. Understandably, a time of social upheaval meant that it was also a time of war, and copper weapons like this one would have been in heavy use. Archaeologists have recovered many pieces like this from copper hoards throughout the Ganges Delta. Size: 14.9" L x 2.4" W (37.8 cm x 6.1 cm). Provenance: Ex-Private PJ. Piscopo Collection, Ex M.

Luristan, ca. 1000 to 650 BCE. This is a flanged cast bronze dagger that at one time would have had a handle made of wood, stone, or bone.

The mountain tribesmen of Luristan served as mercenaries for both of these powers and many of them were buried alongside daggers like these. Size: 14.8" L x 1.3" W (37.6 cm x 3.3 cm).
