The mace was a favourite weapon in warfare and was also used as a ceremonial weapon by the kings, as evidenced by the countless scenes and reliefs depicting the king smiting Egypt's enemies with a huge mace. Both disc- shaped and pear- shaped mace heads were used in pre-historic Egypt but the disc- shape later went out of use while pear- shaped mace heads are often found in many graves.
