The invention of bronze changed the face of ancient technology. Men soon discovered that this alloy of copper and tin produced stronger tools of war, and soon all the great armies of the Near East carried bronze weapons. This splendid dagger or short sword would have seen battle duty about the time of the Biblical patriarchs. Though its antiquity is evident, its linear simplicity gives it a contemporary appeal. - (FZ.245)
