👉 The Julian Sword, also known as the "Julian Gladius," was a Roman sword designed by Julius Caesar in 46 BC, though its origins might trace back even further to earlier Roman weapon designs. It featured a distinctive double-edged blade, typically around 60-70 cm in length, with a broad, flat cross-section, making it versatile for both slashing and thrusting attacks. The sword's design included a pommel and a hilum (a loop for the scabbard), and it was often adorned with intricate engravings or decorations, reflecting its status as a prestigious weapon. Its effectiveness and aesthetic appeal made it a favorite among Roman soldiers, contributing to its enduring legacy in ancient warfare and weaponry.
