I am in need of information about a sword that my grandfather found in an attic in the 20's. It is about 3 feet long with strange writing on the blade. I have sent pictures to the smithsonian, and also to a place in Russia to see if they could determine the origin of this sword, and possibly identify the language.

Smithsonian felt it was very close to a Kossack sword, stated the handle was made of bone and agreed that there is indeed writing on the blade but had no idea of the origin of the language.

When I received the information back from Russia they said it looked like a Kossack sword but was probably a bit older, they also had no idea what language is inscribed on the blade but agree that it is writing.

Does anyone know of other places I might be able to find this information? The sword was used in battle that is for certain, its very well balanced in the hand and the smithsonian said it appeared to still have bloodlike stains on the steel.

Thanks for reading.

The French aid supplied to the American rebels in the revolution must have strained their resources. And I can't imagine how the just created USA would be able to repay France for their aid. Did the cost of foreign involvement make France go bankrupt? Their revolution was only a few years later. Must have been some connection to it.

I have been trying to find information on the Spanish settlements in the southwest in the new world during the 17th century and I haven't had much luck. I was wondering if anyone could help me out in finding some sites dealing with its settlements, its politics, religion, and economic development there at that time. I appreciate everyone's help!

Hi - I am thinking of starting a website that would be for photographers/artists who like to use compact/point and shoot type of cameras for thier work or art-

users could create their own profile and post their own works and view other members content as well-

there would also be forums where people could talk and share tips and advice with each other-

Photographers of all levels would be welcome but - only photos taken with compact cameras would be allowed-

Is this a stupid idea ? - I think a site like this would be sort of fun and it is also the kind of site that I would go to myself if someone else had it-

thanks-
