new edit

I've started a new edit of this article, trying to incorporate existing sources as best I can. Don't quite know what to do about this statement and its source: Arthur Woollgar Verrall placed the lifetime of Tyrtaeus in the middle of the 5th century BC.<reference Classical Review, July 1896, May 1897.. I suspect it refers either to an Athenian Tyrtaeus (poet) or maybe a Spartan-born general, but I don't know. Either way, the source is very old. I'd dump it except it links to a scholar notable enough to deserve an article of his own. I'll leave it here for rescue when and if the need is felt.

"Holding secure in his grasp haft of his sword or his spear!"

Should this be shaft?

A quick dictionary check will answer your question. - Eponymous-Archon (talk) 18:04, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The words "haft" and "shaft" both have the same meaning, they just have different spellings. The word haft is correct in this sentence.

No, a haft and a shaft are completely different things. A sword doesn't have a shaft. Kanjuzi (talk) 19:05, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
