this proves it, vikings were actually north african
>>3235796
Or was it that the north africans were actually viking?
The Dacians were inside-out Samurai.
Does it really prove a physical interaction between the two or does it show that we as humans think alike? What if it just means the two groups found the same solution as coincidence?
>>3236603
Probably indirect interaction between contemporary groups, Kopesh was used as far as Thrace in the bronze age
>>3237376
Where?
Also Greeks employed Italic swords in this period that were similar to central European swords

Nah mate the local blacksmith did it lol nice try tho
>>3237397
Except that Egyptian like was used in east europe and the trip from there to Denmark is doable in a week
>>3237380
>Where?
Northern Europe, I can't find it but it was a pic similar to: >>3235701
Where the sword itself was actually composed of several pieces of flint fastened to a wooden frame so the flint itself only seemed to be an outline of the sword and not a sword proper. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I think I found a pic of what you're talking about, it's the one on the right
>>3237414
clearly a copy. nobody ever thought of that shape before.
>>3237414
why were these made ?
was it more primitive peoples copying more advance bronze age peoples? or was it just a shortage of bronze ?
even if there was a shortage of tin, copper weapons would have done better job than flint so im a little confused
>>3237573
Bronze age Scandinavians had bronze weapons, though they sued copper from South Europe rather than their own, possibly because it was too difficult to extract from their mines
>>3237414
wouldn't that shatter?
These guys created incredible art
>>3237403
because there is no other possible explanation to why a thing used for the same purpose has the same shape in different parts of the world
the guy that invented the hammer must have got screwed, he should have pattented it, he would of been a trillionare
>>3237596
so why use flint?
>>3237856
maybe it was cheaper and easy to find, like a disposable self defence weapon for poorfags
>>3237888
you'd think that but the flint would shatter on impact after use. You would need to hand make the new flint pieces after every use.The bronze or copper could be used,sharpened and at worst reforged after use. Otzi the iceman was found with a copper axe as his primary weapon and tool at 5000BC.
it just seems bizarre you would waste your time making them. Almost reminds me of native american gunstock clubs
