...an ornate bronze sword was found with a human skeleton. The sword was found sheathed in a wooden scabbard finished in black lacquer. The scabbard had an almost air-tight fit with the sword body. Unsheathing the sword revealed an untarnished blade, despite the tomb being soaked in underground water for over 2,000 years.
Imagine finding that! Awesome!
My world history teacher knew his shit. Learned alot of out-of-the-way-information in that class. But yeah, I'd imagine diseased horse corpse really can break up a front line. Never thought about the long term effects via biological warfare. I wonder if plague victims and lepers were treated as such lol
i would go with dual wield katar
