Roman Gladius Swords
Roman Gladius swords were used by the roman soldiers from the Fourth Century BC to the Second Century AD. The Gladius was also used by Gladiators who were slaves who were forced to fight to the death for the sport of others. The word Gladius actually translates sword, so it can be used to describe any type of sword but are typically known today as a two-edged sword with a tapered point. This form was made for stabbing and so the hilt was made with to form a solid grip and often had formed ridges for fingers.
Hilts were also often ornately decorated, especially for those of higher rank. We recognize Roman Gladius swords today because of the triangular shape on the blade, near the hilt, and the ridge that ran down the middle of the blade, to the tip. Often the owner's name was stamped on the blade. The Gladius was worn by the centurion on the opposite hip on a belt, or in a scabbard (made of leather-covered wood) on the shoulder. It was not carried there for ease of use as they also carried a shield, but instead as a mark of distinction.
