Was part of your questian.

Perhaps you should ask the curator why they wont positivly identify them in thier name...

But sorry if my observational answear offended you, the pieces genuinly made me laugh.

Hi Jonathan,
Don't take it wrong, but i regret failling to find the sense of your remark . If they knew how to properly name them, they would certainly know their origin, and all about them. Now that i know what they are, from Philip, i will tell them myself. Besides i don't see much unfamiliarity between halberds and polearms .
No, you didn't offend me; i am starting to get used to your observational answers ; i know they are garnished with good intent. Besides, i already told you about the bullits and the indifference cuirass
All the best
Fernando
