Spada medievală de la Deta

  • Subiect: „The sword from Deta is an item found today in the collections of the City Museum of Deta (Timiş County). We do not know where did it came from or when it was discovered. It has a length of 1065 mm, from which 915 mm are reserved for the blade. The convergent edges of the blade indicate that the sword was used both for strike and thrust. The grip is short and made from the same metal bar as the blade. The guard is straight and rectangular in section. The grip is closed by a lenticular pommel. From the multitude of similar items we find one in the same geographical area at Poiana Prisăcii (Caraş-Severin County). The most famous similar item is the ceremonial sword used at the crowning of German kings and emperors and found today in the imperial treasury from Viena.”
