Acquired 1980-2015. Ex Abelita family collection.
This very rare typology of dagger is related in type with those with crescent guard, while the pommel is related to the daggers with disc pommel. A similar parallel came from Tepe Hissar in North Iran. According to Muscarella, it is highly probable that the daggers with such rare hilt had an origin in an area north of Luristan. -
