What reading level is The Anglo Saxon Weapon Names Treated Archaeologically And Etymologically book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
2 Jahns, Taf. II. « Bk. XIII, 1. 611. 4 Bk. XV, 1. 71L 5 Lib. II, c. 5. 6 II, c. 27. Of 57 sectiris, and enumerates sword, axe, and spear as the chief weapons of the ordinary soldiery at the time of Clovis. Flodoardus and Hincmar^ mention the francisca, while Isid. ^ at the beginning of the 7^^^ cent, remarks that the hipennis was called by the Spainards, i. E. Goths, francisca. In the case of the battle axe archaeological research has corroborated history, the Frankish grave-finds being rich i...n franciscas found together with the spear and shield. The difficulty, however, is to reconcile the kind of axe found with the terms Ijipennis and aij/fiardjiof; of the historians^ both of which undoubtedly convey the mean- ing of doiihle-axe, while all those discovered in the graves are single. The three principal types of axe met with in the grave-finds are: No. 1 the genuine francisca or throwing-axe, which although varying in size and weight is the lightest and simplest of all axe forms'^, with a comparatively short handle, and blade broadening out to a flat quarter of a circle with the peculiarity that the middle of the blade does not coincide with the middle of the axe head, this position of the blade probably strengthening the force of the blow when hurled.
