The Southwark Knife Reconsidered
The iron knife with silver inlay found in Southwark in 1930 is reconsidered in the light of more recent publication of weapons with silver inlay from the East Baltic area. The technical and stylistic parallels suggest an origin in that area and a date within the period 1100–1300
The Hallstatt Sword of Bronze
The primary object of the present article is to offer a review of the current state of knowledge of those flange-hilted swords of bronze which characterize the earliest phase of the Hallstatt period, and of some derivative varieties; and to support it by as complete an inventory of the available material as lies within the writer's power. It aspires, accordingly, first and foremost to be a factual survey of a clearly defined group of weapons, whi…
The Origins of the Flange-hilted Sword of Bronze in Continental Europe
In the present study it is proposed to set out, in somewhat greater detail than has yet been attempted, the case for an independent and wholly indigenous development of the flange-hilted sword of bronze in extra-Aegean Europe. That these were not the first tanged or even flange-hilted swords to be made goes without saying. At a time which on any view must be earlier by a clear margin the Mycenaeans were enjoying the use of splendid rapiers of whi…

The Late Bronze Age Chronology of Central Europe
At a classic meeting of the Prehistoric Society, held during April 1948 in the old home of the Institute of Archaeology of London University, V. G. Childe and C. F. C. Hawkes presented two papers, each complementary to the other, on the chronology of the Late Bronze Age in Europe. This joint approach was focussed on the relative and absolute dating of the Urnfields of the North Alpine foreland, whence Hawkes applied the results to the West, and p…

Bronze Swords in Northern Europe
It is just over twenty years since Professor Ernst Sprockhoff published his classic study of bronze swords in Northern Europe, and a review of the situation as it presents itself today, surveyed from a point well outside the limits of the Nordic area, may not be out of place. The ground covered in this fine work had already in part been traversed by Sophus Müller and Gustav Kossinna; but in the process it had become a field of battle where the bi…
The Earliest Bronze Swords in Britain and their Origins on the Continent of Europe
Notable advances have taken place on the continent of recent years in the study of bronze types of the Late Bronze Age, and of their distribution both in time and space. In Britain, too, progress has been made. We have some while since distinguished a Late Bronze Age II (roughly equivalent to Hallstatt B) from a Late Bronze Age I (roughly Hallstatt A), and latterly even begun—though still dimly—to envisage a Late Bronze Age III, which would be th…
