Mace, light
Military, Blunt, Sidearm, Cavalry, Central Asia, Middle East, Africa
A wooden haft with a small striking head of iron or bronze (or in some cases, even stone) frequently knobbed or shaped to enhance striking effectiveness. Light maces were a popular cavalry weapon going way back into antiquity, particularly on the Asian steppes. These were often wielded with a wrist thong to aid in weapon retention when striking someone during a ride-by attack, and could be thrown at their targets as well.
