Summary

[edit]
Description FULL-LENGTH PIKES - A weapon, usually between 2.44 and 2.74 m long, consisting of a shaft tipped with a sharp point. The shaft is usually made of wood, and the point, first made of flint or bone, was later made of such metals as bronze or steel. The spear has been used from prehistoric times, both as a hand weapon and as a missile. The medieval pike and lance developed from the spears of antiquity. The pike, carried by foot soldiers, was a wooden shaft with a hook attached to the point. The lance, generally 3.05 or 3.35 m long, was used as a cavalry weapon until the early 20th century. - MALTA
