The Sword of Tiberius in Ancient Rome
It is a famous ancient Roman sword and its scabbard, discovered near the Rhine River in Mainz, Germany. Since 1866, it has been a collection of the British Museum, donated to the museum by philanthropist Felix Slade. This sword is made of iron, and its scabbard is made of bronze plated with tin and gold. The decoration on the scabbard depicts the scene of Tiberius ceding military victory to Augustus after a successful Alpine campaign. Augustus, half naked, sat in Jupiter's seat, flanked by the Roman goddess of victory and the god of Mars Urtor, while Tiberius, dressed in military uniform, presented a small statue of the goddess of victory to Augustus.
