Corseque

/kɔːˈseɪk/ noun

Definition

A medieval weapon combining elements of a spear and axe, similar to a halberd; a type of polearm used in medieval warfare.

Etymology

From Old French corsèque or Italian corseggia, possibly related to cors (body) or derived from Corsica. The exact etymology is uncertain, but the weapon was popular in 15th-16th century European armies, particularly Spanish and Italian forces.

Kelly Says

The corsèque is a perfect example of medieval military innovation—as armor evolved, weapons had to adapt, so smiths combined different tools (spear for distance, axe for power) into hybrid weapons that could overcome heavier armor.
