Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Zwaarden die worden gedragen tijdens openbare ceremonies en rituelen om de autoriteit van de drager aan te tonen. Ze werden vaak met de punt omhoog gedragen door een lijfwacht of andere volgeling van de eigenaar in plaats van door hemzelf. |
Spanish ..... Espadas portadas durante ceremonias públicas y rituales para denotar la autoridad del propietario o portador. A menudo eran llevadas apuntando hacia arriba por un guardaespaldas u otro asistente caminando detrás del dueño, más que por él mismo. |
