One-handed sword from the site Posádka near Gajary was found during dam construction at the Morava River and originally was associated with a Hussite fortress from the mid-15th century that protected a ford across the river. The sword was documented using X-ray imaging, the blade to XRF analysis and metallographic analysis. The blade bears two marks – a Calvary cross and a floral motif – of inlaid brass. Metallographic analysis of the blade showed that its makeup was that of a soft core wrapped in a steel coat. The sword production process was experimentally reconstructed. Based on period iconographical sources, the sword is being dated to the second half of the 13th century. It is likely a relic of the Battle on the Marchfeld, between King Ottokar II of Bohemia and Roman Emperor Rudolph I Habsburg that took place on August 26 1278.
