Parazonium

[AntonivsMarivsCongianocvs]

Ave & Hallo,

I just finished making a Parazonium, I posted the thread here:
http://www.romanarmy.com/rat/viewtopic.php?t=18036

Since there's been a lot of talk about the Hellenistic weapon both here and over at the Roman forum, I figured I'd mention it here too as well.

I would image if you're going to comment please post in the link above so it's all in one place.

I added a few photos below, there are lots more in the other thread.

I based mine on both the examples in statues as well as the Hellenistic xiphos sword... which is the closest sword from antiquity with physical examples I had.

Thanks!
Anthony
