Arkalochori Axe

The Arkalochori Axe was a golden-bladed battleaxe engraved with symbols of ritual which was used for ceremonies in Temple of Poseidon in Heraklion during the Peloponnesian War.

History
At the decree of a man known only as Swordfish, ceremonies using the axe were performed to honour the god of the seas, Poseidon. At some point bandits stole the axe, and a terrified priestess approached the visiting Spartan misthios Kassandra, asking her to retrieve the ceremonial axe and thus appease both Poseidon as well as the Swordfish.
