Pavel Beran Ruční palné zbraně na Blízkém východě Počátky, výroba a použití Firearms in the Middle East Beginnings, Production and Use Školitel: Praha 2012 prof. PhDr. Rudolf Veselý, CSc. Poděkování Na tomto místě bych rád poděkoval svému školiteli, panu prof. PhDr. Rudolfovi Veselému, CSc. za odbornou pomoc při psaní této práce. Dále mému učiteli panu doc. PhDr. Františkovi Ondrášovi, Ph.D. a přátelům z Českého šermířského klubu Riegel za četné podněty a poskytnutí cenné literatury. Prohlášení Prohlašuji, že jsem rigorózní práci vypracoval samostatně, že jsem řádně citoval všechny použité prameny a literaturu a že práce nebyla využita v rámci jiného vysokoškolského studia či k získání jiného nebo stejného titulu. V Praze dne 10.února 2012 podpis Abstrakt Předkládaná práce se věnuje vývoji ručních palných zbraní v oblasti Blízkého východu. Jedná se především o období od poloviny 15. do konce 18. století. Na některých místech je okrajově zmíněn i počátek 19. století. V první části je sledován vývoj ručních palných zbraní v historickém kontextu. Výklad se soustředí především na Osmanskou říši, částečně také na Egypt. Rozebírán je mimo jiné způsob použití a taktika. Dále je sledován výskyt palných zbraní ve významných bitvách a na dobových obrazech a miniaturách. V druhé části se autor věnuje vývoji ručních palných zbraní po stránce technické. Tato část se zvlášť soustředí na jednotlivé prvky ručních palných zbraní a jejich vývoj. Do určité míry je v této části řešen i umělecký charakter dochovaných exponátů. V přílohách je práce doplněna četnými fotografiemi dochovaných exponátů z českých i zahraničních sbírek a dalšími obrazovými materiály.

  • Flint Tools and Flintknapping
    Jigsaw Cambridgeshire Best Practice Users' Guide Flint Tools through the Ages, and the Art of Flintknapping James Dilley October 2015 © Jigsaw Cambridgeshire Page 1 of 10 1 FLINT AND FLINTKNAPPING Flint (SiO2 - Silicon Dioxide) is a bio-sedimentary material that was formed in the ocean millions of years ago. It is almost pure silica, containing less than 5% impurity in the form of Calcium Carbonate and other trace elements, such as sodium and potassium which are found in different proportions from different sites, thus allowing analysis to determine the source of flint tools. Its very fine crystalline grain gives flint a glassy character that when struck, fractures conchoidally, which makes it perfect for knapping. Other materials that contain a very high quantity of silica can also be knapped such as obsidian, glass, chert, baked porcelain and even fossilised wood! Scientists are still not totally sure how it was formed, but we can tell due to the faults in the flint and patterns that appear when flint is broken that the remains of sea creatures play a large role in the formation of flint. It is likely that when an organism dies it sinks to the sea bed and begins to decay. It is at this point the high levels of silicon particles in the sea at that time would have stuck to the decaying remains, eventually sealing it in a cocoon of silicon. This nodule of soft silicon expanded and hardened, eventually forming layers of flint that we see today at the beach in chalk cliffs such as those at Dover.

  • A Note on Flint-Locks, and the Flintlock
    ASAC_Vol105_05-Gooding_110015.qxp 10/5/12 2:23 PM Page 29 A Note on Flint-locks, and the Flintlock By S. James Gooding* In this publication, “flintlock” or “French lock” will be used to identify the flint mechanism with a joined hammer and pan cover (frizzen), an internal mainspring, and a vertical act- ing sear working on a notched tumbler. This is based upon Urquhardt’s translation from the Swedish of Torsten Lenk’s Flintlaset, All other flint-using locks will be recognized as flint- locks, with a modifier if more precise identification is required. In the study of firearms history, early arms terminology has been accurately adopted by some historians, but just as frequently it has been changed by some writers to suit the occasion. When starting to pull this ‘talk’ together I dug out some previously unpublished notes dated as early as 1982 on the same theme with the title “A Snaphance by any other name would still be a Flint Lock.”One of them had a subtitle based on an old expression often used by my mother “Fools rush in, where angels fear to tread.” Perhaps it is a fool’s errand to attempt to make changes to more than 300 years of language evolution but I believe it is worth a try. Early gun locks can readily be placed in the order of evolution based upon the four major sources for ignition; express the differences between ‘flint lock,’ ‘flint-lock’ and ‘flintlock’? 1. Match, 2. Pyrites, 3. Flint, 4. Fulminate This paper will look at the English language and how it The matchlock with its smoldering match, the wheel- has adapted some foreign vocabulary to put names to the lock with its pyrites and wheel, and the many forms of per- flint-using ignitions.
