The origins of occult weapons date back to humanity's oldest beliefs. It is common to find, among ancient pre-Columbian civilizations as well as among the Shang, ritual knives made from flint, gold or jade. Gallic warriors, led by Vercingetorix, attributed to their swords the power to capture the vital energy of their victims by impregnating them with their blood, thus transforming them into "animated" objects. During the Middle Ages, witches used the athame, a magic knife, to carry out mysterious operations. The importance of mysterious daggers continued even into the Romantic era, where they were used in initiation rituals of secret societies and in dark black mass ceremonies, retaining their significant role to the present day.
