V originále
In the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna there is a very interesting sword from the Middle Ages. According to the museum staff, the sword with exhibition number Hofjäger- und Rüstkammer, A 2035, was found in 1915 on the Bersaglio hill near Monte Gello (village S. Biaggio) east of Rovereto in Italy, at a depth of 1.75 m. The study of the sword focuses on the analysis of the typological features. The criteria for distinguishing particular types of pommels, blades and crossguards should be such as to aid in the chronological determination of a sword. A first attempt to classify the sword is made using Oakeshott's well-known typological system classification. However, it seemed very difficult to categorize the sword strictly according to a certain typological scheme, analyzed the pommel, crossguard and blade. Finally, the image sources were used to find analogies. Hence, we concluded that the sword could be more associated with Byzantine military manufacture than with Western typologies.
