When does this date to and where is it from?
The spearheads from the Aghios Athanasios paintings look painted blue as well, but I highly doubt that they painted spearheads. My point is that it wouldn't look iron to the modern viewer, it would look painted blue, but it would represent iron. Iron was sometimes painted blue from Assyrian times.

He had with him the selfsame rifle you see with him now, all mounted in german silver and the name that he\'d give it set with silver wire under the checkpiece in latin: Et In Arcadia Ego. Common enough for a man to name his gun. His is the first and only ever I seen with an inscription from the classics. - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian
