As Napoleon did not go anywhere near Aachen in 1796 (nor was he the ruler of France, for that matter) I changed "with the advance of Napoleon" to "However, with the advance of the French in the French Revolutionary Wars". -Talon

Unicorn horn

edit

According to the text, the Spiritual Treasury contains the Ainkhürn, thought to be the horn of a unicorn, and that the hilt of a sword was made from it. The photograph suggests strongly that the tusk became the whole length of the sword: hilt and blade. Can anyone determine this? J S Ayer (talk) 13:47, 28 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
