![Attila Fantasy Sword by Marto](images/fantasy/hd_attila.gif)
Atilla the Hun (circa 406-53), king of the Huns
(circa 433-53) One of the most feared and notorious barbarians
of all time, Attila is believed to be of distant Mongol
stock, he ravaged much of the European continent during
the 5th century AD. Apparently Attila was as great a menace
to the Teutonic tribes people as he was to the Romans.
There is a story that he claimed to own the actual sword
of Mars, and that other Barbarian chiefs could not look
the King of the Huns directly in the eyes without flinching.
Attila's haughty step and demeanor expressed the consciousness
of his superiority above the rest of mankind; and he had
a custom of fiercely rolling his eyes, as if he wished
to enjoy the terror which he inspired. In his own day
he and his Huns were known as the "Scourge of God,"
and the devastation they caused in Gaul before the great
Battle of Châlons in 451 AD became a part of medieval
folklore and tradition.
This beautiful Attila Fantasy Sword
measures 53 inches. The blade is of quality 420A stainless
steel. Antique silver cast metal handle, guard and pommel
with gold plated detailing. |
