“It is truly astonishing what the ancients accomplished in metallurgy just by trial, error, and guesswork.”

Well, they didn’t have their noses in smartphones, so they probably had a lot of time on their hands.

phallic yes, but if you use swords, that “phallic” part helps balance the weight of the blade for a more balanced weapon. A weapon like that probably balances a few fingers forward of the hilt making it easier to wield.

Flogging the book of sodom?

Isaac must have went for Gomor.

Abraham must have wrought for sodom.
