A - Defenders of Shayzar, f.153v; B - Standard-bearer of Godefroy de Bouillon, f. 16r; C - Crusaders slaughter Muslims of Antioch, f.49v. The sabres given to the Muslim defenders of Shayzar (A) are among the most accurate Christian portrayals of such weapons. The thickening of the blades towards the tips is exaggerated but the lack of pommels and one curved hilt show a genuine knowledge of Islamic sabres. Godefroy's standard-bearer during the First Crusade (B) seems to wear a war-hat, while two of the Crusaders in Antioch (C) clearly carry oval shields.
