1,500 year old 2.3 meter sword found in Japan #shorts #archaeology #japan

Plus a mirror shield like the imperial regalia of Japan those artifacts are basically the stuff of legends

[brianmccarthy]

The sword; the mirror and the jewel are the traditional gifts of the goddess to the first emperor. Supposedly in Kyoto or at the Imperial Palace, those may not be the originals. It would be interesting if these were prototypes. In any case they indicate someone of great rank.

Imagine fighting a nephalim samurai who blinds you with his bronze mirror shield and cuts you in two shortly after

[brianmccarthy]

Bronze usually develops surface coatings and encrustation but is not corroded. If the sword is bronze, and atcthatcage it almost certainly is, then careful chemical treatments can restore the metal. The mirror should be easier.

Ok. Who's the best togishi in Japan? Whoever that is should get the honor of restoring that sword.

" Mirror Shield!" Suddenly Legend of Zelda discovery jingle plays.

that shield was probably the one used to kill medusa whilst her sisters were still sleeping.

I think Guts appreciates that they found his Dragonslayer; now the black swordsman can return.

The samurai viking, you don't hear many stories, but this person is practically legendary

[bray]

That's not a demon slaying weapon, that's an Aerith slaying weapon

[ChrissieBear]

I love giant swords as status symbols. Very popular in Japan up until the early modern period.

Can we get a full video on this, also an update when they open the square box or coughing or whatever it is

[daviestewart]

My Tallywacker also has a slight bend in the middle and coincidentally I call it my " Demon Slayer ".

We’re just going to ignore that the sword is 2.3 meters which is 7 feet an a half inches long? Either we got superman or a sword built for a giant. They will hide the body as they always have been for thousands of years. Oh and btw they have found giant books yeah for those who didn’t see very well. 😂

Whoever is buried there, was clearly someone of great importance and rank.

[jumpstarter]

Gotta say that restoration is crazy good.

[bigcountrymountainman]

I think it's crazy of the burial mound I found two weeks ago in Montana and the axe and sword that they found in Mercer county West Virginia about 3 months ago.
They found a 7ft 7in long ax and a 6-foot sword in Montana in a burial mound. In West Virginia they found a 33-foot a 28-foot a 21-foot and an 18-foot family. The 18 ft they said was only about thirteen years old. It was a boy. It had not achieved puberty either.
The axe that was found in West Virginia was 12 ft long. They said a person carrying a 12ft axe with a four and a half ft head and two and a half inch thick in the center would have to be at least 38 ft tall and weigh approximately twelve thousand pounds.
They said Goliath at 9 ft wide weighed approximately twelve to fourteen hundred pounds.

We as humans when we think about someone 12-ft tall we just think that they're 12 ft tall, we don't take into consideration the much greater bone structure that they would have and the fact that the muscle mass to hold all of that up in Earth's gravity would have to be doubled for every foot taller that they are. That's why when you look at a man that 6ft tall 6'5 200lb, there is a huge difference play 6ft man 200 pounds is a pretty big guy, but if you're six foot five and you weigh 200 lb your scrawny

Not a Hashira’s it’s the totska blade and yata mirror. Orochimaru would be jealous asl

[youtubesucks]

Dude was definitely a beast. I wonder how heavy that sword is

[Slapsofathousand]

410 hours just restoring the handle of the Viking's sword. That's dedication.
