Maximum similarity with the original.This item is a copy! Not an authentic artifact.Akināk (Old Greek: ἀκινάκης) is a short (40-60 centimeter) iron sword used by the Scythians in the second half of the 1st millennium BC, in another source it is indicated that Acinăces, ἀκινάκης, was a short straight Persian saber worn by right sideIn addition to the Scythians, Akinac was also used by the tribes of the Persians, Medes, Sacs, Argipeans, Massagetae, and Melanchlens.Akinak possessed excellent piercing properties and sufficient mass (up to two kilograms) to inflict cutting blows. Dol, as a rule, was absent.The sword had a heart-shaped cross and a flat pommel in the form of a transverse short bar or crescent. Together with a certain variety of bridle, the akinak was one of the elements of the so-called Scythian triad — a complex of objects characteristic of Scythian culture. Archaeological findings of the Akinakis and other components of the triad allow us to trace the penetration of the Eastern Iranian "royal Scythians" through Central Asia and the Caucasus to the Northern Black Sea region, as witnessed by Herodotus and Diodorus Siculus.In the Greek-Russian dictionary of A. D. Weissman in 1882, the word ἀκινάκης is translated as "curved, short saber (Persians), Medians, Scythians."In Schmalfeld's "Latin Synonymy" of 1890, acinaces is defined as "the curved saber of the Persians and other Eastern nations", in Latin-Russian dictionaries of the same period, the translation sounds as "short Persian saber".Dimensions see photos!Weight 368 grams!This item is genuine and from the period described. 100% authentic artifacts.
