Overlooked Weapon of Ancient History: The DISC MACE

You've seen flanged and spiked maces, but did you know about the disc type? Found in ancient Egypt, Neolithic (Younger Stone Age) Europe, Mesoamerica, Papua New Guinea, and probably other places. Made of various types of rock, copper, bronze, and even bone. It's almost more like a sort of omni axe than a mace, and definitely more sophisticated than a stereotypical caveman club / cudgel. Unknown (and underrated) by many people, this unique impact weapon deserves a closer look.
