The "Myth" of the "Dacian Falx" as a super weapon
Dear Dan,
sorry for the misunderstanding, I was talking about the yataghan. And please go back to my posts. I didn't made a parallel between the yataghan and falx. C'mon man, nobody does that - a parallel between artifacts from different time periods Smile ! I used this particular object to point out my ideea of a different weapon used in a different style.
You have here two types of Dacian scythes (older and newer discoveries):

tell me, witch one looks more like the falx?
A tribe union without a warrior elite??
An object used bouth as tool and weapon in the same time??
Who said the Dacians hade to fight in organised formation as Romans did??
As for the evidence, the Trajan's column, the historical writings, the archaeological discoveries and the opinion of today specialists (all posted allready) are good enough for me.
