Is this a sword I see before me? - Ep 6

It's time for another journey back to the past, and this time we go armed! Matilda chats with archaeologist Valerio Gentile all about his research on Bronze Age swords. Were bronze swords used in combat? How does one create a bronze sword? What is the only acceptable type of coffee to drink as an Italian? Find out the answers to these questions and more in this month's episode of Tea-break Time Travel.
