The Aegean/Mycenaean Bronze Age Rapier, originating around 1700 BCE on Crete, Greece, features a very long, double-edged, straight blade. These swords evolved into various sub-types, as categorized in the Sandars Typology. They were practical for both ceremonial and warfare purposes, characterized by reinforced central ribs and intricate, multi-part hilts with decorative fittings.
