Talk:Bronze Age sword

sources please

I am tired of tolerating the unreferenced WP:REDFLAGs here. If anyone has evidence of bronze swords predating 1700 BC, let them produce decent references. --dab (𒁳) 15:22, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

more chronological precision please!

"From an early time the swords reach lengths in excess of 100 cm." - a sentence like this is not worthy of being in a serious historical, archaeological article...!!! "From an early time..." - what does this nebulous formulation mean?? data please, figures... see also above: "sources please" - I agree! avanti dilettanti (still: thanx that there is an article at all...)! --HilmarHansWerner (talk) 07:00, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
