Peasant's Scepter

A Peasant's Scepter was a robust scepter typically used by peasants in the 1st century BCE Egypt.
==Description==
Not a true scepter per se, the Peasant's Scepter was little more than a simple stick with one end enlarged in the shape of a flattened gunstock that could effectively be used as a club. The staff was wrapped in leather cords and could be adapted as a rudimentary weapon for self-defense. Because of the thin profile of the "stock", the staff was actually sharp enough to inflict minor cuts.Assassin's Creed: Origins
==History==
As its name suggests, Peasant's Scepters were commonly carved by Egyptian farmers living in the countryside in the pharaonic days. Although the staves were not powerful weapons, they provided some form of protection for individuals to poor to afford swords or spears.
During his hunt for the Order of the Ancients, the Medjay Bayek of Siwa commonly found this weapon in the inventories of blacksmiths and on bodies and in chests during his travels throughout Egypt.

==Behind the scenes==
The Peasant's Scepter, a weapon in Assassin's Creed: Origins, shares the same model as the Siwan Scepter, another weapon in the same game. The same model was also recycled as the model of the Shepherd's Cane, a weapon in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, and its kind.
