Thanks for posting these photos Carlos.
Regarding the Palencia plaque, if this is the present state of the panoply, I commend the caretakers for doing a good job of maintaining it. The kampilans blade piercing seems to be in shape of a naga. I thought only the Americans reversed the hilts position on the kris', it turns out the Spaniards did as well. |

Fantastic plaques of Philippine weapons(do I see a Japanese Naginata there); did they go for huge money?The information may be in the link that you provided, but I can not open it.
On one of the plaques, it looks like it is dedicated to the Generals of the Brigade, D.Diego and Martin de Velasco.A quick search on the internet didn't result in any information on these individuals; are you aware of any history of these men? |

Here is a translation of part of the article that talks about the two men named on the plaque. "What is clear is that they were donated by General Buil, a soldier who was stationed in Palencia at the head of the Farnese Regiment, based today in Valladolid. Diego Buil and Martín de Velasco was born on August 15, 1843 and forged a solid professional career in the cavalry weapon throughout the second half of the nineteenth century, fighting fundamentally in the Carlist wars of the Isabellan side. It was destined to the island of Cuba in September of 1875, where it remained until 1884, year in which it returns to the Peninsula with the degree of colonel, after to have fought to the Cuban separtistas in different moments. In May 1885, he was given the command of the Lancers of Farnesio, a regiment that was now quartered in Palencia, a city to which he would always feel strongly united. This regiment would leave the garrison of Palencia to move definitively to Valladolid in 1896. That year, Diego Buil, was named general of Brigade and continued to the front of the lancers." |

Neat presentations, thank you.
What if any attribution can be made for the double spear head seen down the page? And exacting details? Gavin |

Thanks for the information on the generals and the price of the plaque(I think it was a great price for the buyer).
I was wondering about the double headed spear myself, which to me seems to be more African in nature ;I have one that resembles that one, but with 4 heads. |

I've had this for many years.
It originally came with a collection of Luzon and Visayan sandata. |

i believe the double headed spear is known as "dua sanga", per Andson Cowie's book English-Sulu-Malay Vocabulary

Hello All,
Apologies if the answer is obvious, but do we know anything about this one? It almost looks like a Sangi and a Barong had a baby. Thanks, Leif |

You're right the handle does look a lot like a Panabas. Let me update our story. A barong and a sangi had a baby and it was adopted by a panabas who later moved to Spain. Oh, and I assume the horizontal thing isn't a crossguard, but a piece of leather which is holding the baby to the plaque. Do people agree? Thank, Leif |
