A sword is a piece of metal, forged honed and sharpened. Usually fitted with a hand guard above the pommel. The importance of the sword is most usually overlooked or even forgotten; it was the first weapon designed exclusively for the purpose of killing human beings. Prior to the sword all other weapons were adaptations of hunting tools, the spear, the bow, the axe etc., but the sword is not the tool of the hunter but the weapon of the murderer. This explains why the sword has the ability to take on mythical qualities and plays such an important role as a symbol of power. The sword is the primary image of social authority because it is the instrument of human life or death for post hunter gatherer and nomadic cultures.
