Looks like is beyond doubt that hunting talwars are not meant to be an operational weapon for hunting but a 'show off' item decorated with hunting scenes.
Still one thing to figure out is, why the massive quantity of these blades depict animal versus animal hunting scenes and not animals being hunted by men, be them their chasers (shikharis and mir shikaran) or their mounted hunter lords. Would there be a motive for such strong tendency ? |
