Product description

The word "hasta" means spear in Latin. The early Roman legionaries employed the hasta. During the republican period, the hasta was replaced on a large scale by the pilum and gladius. The cavalry and auxiliae, however, continued to utilise the hasta. The pilum was intended for throwing from a longer distance, whilst the hasta was designed for close combat stabbing. It was therefore effective against cavalry. The hasta was historically crafted from bronze or iron.

The hasta is constructed from metal and comes with a wooden shaft. It is exactly as long as the historical hasta, with a total length of 2.3 metres. The hasta is therefore dispatched in two parts. In the middle of the shaft is a screw construction with which the two halves may be joined together.
