Read the article carefully, please. This is a sword with its roots deep in the mythological figure of the Cid. Obviously, a real sword can't have any "supernatural properties", but this is not a real sword, as you can read in the categories. The section "supernatural properties" relates to the epic poem [[The Lay of the Cid]], where the sword does have this properties. Please, read the entire article next time.--Infinauta (talk) 20:47, 2 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
You're correct. I actually did read the entire article the first time, but I don't think it's very clear. Only by clicking through to Cantar de mio Cid was I able to determine that the section is talking about the sword in a work of fiction. From just reading the article it appeared to me that the Cantar de mio Cid was being used a source saying that the sword does indeed have supernatural properties. 71.227.159.195 (talk) 13:17, 12 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
