See here the delicate operation of removing the sword of King Dom Dinis from his 1325 tomb for study.

Neat! That is very well preserved... You can still make out much of the colors the pommel and grip would've been originally.

Interesting. It looks like something we would likely misidentify as "fantasy". Hopefully we can see the blade later.
