Knives, axes, currency blades and spears, most made of forged iron, attest to the skills in metal of the blacksmiths of many traditional African peoples. Most exhibit an inventive variety of form and workmanship far beyond what was functionally necessary. Some functioned as weapons. Many , however, were solely for ceremonial or ritual use, or displayed for prestige or status. The largest selections also served as currency, with forms made in the style of weapons, but not functional.

greece

The period in which ancient Greece flourished was also a turbulent time for the continent of Europe. Wars between the city-states within Greece, as well as wars with Rome and other neighboring countries meant that Greece had to develop a proficient army, as well as perfect their naval skills. Battles in this time period were nothing like those in the eras of guns and explosions – in fact, the very style of ancient Greek weapons caused wars at that time to be fought much differently.
One of the many types of soldiers found in ancient Greece was the hoplite. Also known as the typical foot soldier, hoplites were the backbone of the Greek army. They were the men who went into the hand-to-hand combat situations that were the way classical Greek wars were fought – they had really cool weapons back then like speres cand swords.

Offensive weapons in use at this time can be divided into three categories according to their range. Short-range weapons were used in hand-to-hand combat and included the sword or dagger and the spear. Medium-range weapons were designed to be thrown at enemies a short distance away. Occasionally spears were light enough to be thrown, but the shorter and lighter javelin was better suited for throwing. Long-range weapons could be thrown or fired at an enemy further away. Examples of long-range weapons include the sling, used to hurl stones, and the bow, for propelling arrows.

of the East (or "Challenge of the Ninja").Legendary Weapons of China (aka Legendary Weapons of Kung Fu) is a 1982 martial arts fantasy film directed by Lau Kar-Leung. It takes place during the late Qing Dynasty when Empress Dowager Cixi dispatches her agents to various factions of the Boxer Rebellion in order find supernatural martial artists that are invulnerable to western bullets. When one of the leaders of these groups disbands his forces, assassins from the remaining factions are sent out to kill him for his apparent treason. As the title of the film suggests, a great variety of fights take place involving the "legendary weapons."
Although Lau Kar-Leung is known for showing "real Kung-Fu" in his films, he does take some artistic license by incorporating elements of Taoist Maoshan folk magic with hand-to-hand combat. This is similar to what he did in another of film of his, Heroes

r generating needs such as Canada. It appears to have been primarily motivated as a general deterrentIndia possesses an arsenal of weapons of mass destruction, including nuclear weapons and maintains intermediate-range ballistic missiles and cruise missile submarines to deliver them. India is also currently developing submarine-launched ballistic missiles[1] and intercontinental ballistic missiles.[India has never been a member of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. India tested what it called a "peaceful nuclear explosive" in 1974 (which became known as "Smiling Buddha"). The test was the first test developed after the creation of the NPT, and created new questions about how civilian nuclear technology could be diverted secretly to weapons purposes (dual-use technology). India's secret development caused great concern and anger particularly from nations that had supplied it nuclear reactors for peaceful and powe, as well as an attempt to project India as regional power.

weapons in mesopatomia

A mace is a wooden club with a head of some hard and heavy material fastened to it. Stone suggested itself to ancient weaponmakers: it was easily available and could be shaped with proven techniques. Some of the oldest weapons used by man, clubs are easily fashioned from branches. Strong and shock absorbing, wood is an almost perfect material for making many implements, weapons among them. Its lightness on the other hand is a drawback when the intention is to hit ones opponent over the head with it in order to crack his skull. The attempt to overcome this by widening the business end of the club was only partially successful. Even in a culture as peaceful as pre-dynastic Egypt - peaceful that is compared to more warlike regions like Mesopotamia, where internecine conflict was almost constant from earliest times - clubs gave way to maces, which could do a much better job at smashing skulls.
