Iberian Falcata, bronze color, Marto
The falcata is a steel sword native to the Iberian Peninsula and is therefore linked to the Iberian natives before the Roman conquest. It was used by Iberian or neighboring countries such as the Celtiberians as it was the most common sword in the peninsular region. Roman chroniclers praised the quality of the iron used in the construction of Spanish weapons; they were surprised by its cutting capacity and flexibility, one of the most appreciated and sought-after features of its manufacture. Interestingly, after the initial fighting in the Iberian Peninsula, Roman troops were ordered to reinforce the edges of their shields with iron, which may be due to the cutting power of falcatas, which was far superior to straight swords and sabers. .
