See last pic there; not exactly, but has similar flavour...

I'd guess Chinese as well. Seen a number of variations of these trident type polearms in China.

I took a look through Stones and found a Chinese and a Korean trident however neither of them were similar and they were both socketed.

I think the points on the sides are a little odd ,could you post a closer pic of where they connect to the rest of the head?I think this could tell us several things about your trident.

I've seen this particular trident before, but I can't recall where. Was this a Timonium in the past? Have we discussed it?

:confused:


I'm off to search the archives... :cool:

Here's one from China. Not exactly the same, but similar.

I've seen galvano's trident before, and it's driving me crazy! :p

I think it came up for discussion here but damned if I can find the thread .

I think it was this thread, but the pics are gone...
 

I think that's it, Manny! Thanks. That was really bothering me. :D


Unfortunately, I don't think we're any further in our understanding of this piece than we were a few years ago. :o

thanks
 

Thank you very much for your answers.
Now a pole should be manufactured.
