1328 Early Migration Sword

From approximately 250AD until 802AD, Europe experienced a transitional phase commonly known as the Migration Era. During this time many people groups wandered from place to place before finally settling down roots as the Early Middle Ages began. German and Slavic tribes clashed with Viking invaders for many years before beginning to create kingdoms and empires that would define the shape of Europe and course of its history for centuries to come. Many different waves of "barbarian" invaders made their mark on the area at this time as Europe began to solidify into the Middle Ages. The evolution of the sword underwent some drastic leaps forward during this period.
