This is an incredibly rare ancient Roman dagger with bone handle, real gold giltet handle top and bronze sheath. The blade of the dagger is iron. There is a cubic piece of bronze separating bone handle and the iron blade.
The Dagger was found together with a personal Roman bronze and enamel seal. It displayed on the river rock rested on original Roman bronze teardrop belt terminal. Found in the river bed in Central Europe, this Dagger was carefully professionally restored and preserved.
The handles of common tools in that time were often embellished with sculpted figures or ornamented round or square pieces from bronze or gold. Those handle tops most likely could have been symbols of any kind of importance and significance.
This dagger’s gold giltet handle tip shows that the dagger might have belonged to an important general, a noble man or a lady. An original unique bronze sheath is a wonderful and rare example of the dagger’s and knife’s cases of the Roman era.
The history of Daggers goes back to Stone Age and this type of weapon has been used since then. It is a primary type of edged weapon throughout the entire world. Most daggers were used for self defence or covert attack.
This dagger is a piece of Roman history itself ,is in stunning condition for its age and carries centuries of historical and private events.
