Ancient Egypt, the oldest training wooden-sword

The Egyptian wooden-training sword of king Tutankhamun.

The Egyptian fighting-sword of king Tutankhamun.


Ancient Egypt had developed its martial art techniques to include a wooden training sword. Ancient Egyptians had invented the first Buken long time ago before China or Japan. The actual fighting -sword that had been used in Egypt had something to do with the scimitar swords meanwhile it doesn't fit to any of the well known scimitar types. As a matter of fact, the techniques of use relate to that Egyptian sword are still to be unknown. The Egyptian Museum has an interesting number of the wooden-training sword; the most famous in the whole collection are the wooden-training swords of king Tutankhamun which belong to the 18th dynasty which is around 1400 B.C.

NOUT, The Sky-goddess .

Nout is one of the most outstanding goddesses that are included by the Ennead of Heliopolis. The pantheon of gods which represents these nine members, was created in the Egyptian creeds since 4000 B.C at least. The Ennead consists of a supreme God who is Atum ,in addition to four main gods and their consorts. Geb, the Earth-god, Nout, the Sky-goddess, Shu, the Air- god and Tefnut, the Water-goddess were representing the main natural elements of the Egyptian cosmogony meanwhile, Atum or Ra was representing the positive energy, the sun, the light and the ultimate power of creation and everlasting. The title Nout in the Hieroglyphs includes the determinative for liquids or water which is pronounced Nu and has the shape of a pot. The hieroglyphic components of the name emphasize that Nout is the source of water which means that she is mother of the water-goddess Tefnout.
The myth describes goddess Nout to  have a shape of a woman with an elongated body that enables her to stretch to surround and reach earth ends with her tiptoes and fingers. Also the ancients believed that she swallows the sun at sun set then gives birth to it with next sun-rise so always the sun  will be reborn. Copyrig © 2006
