==Historical Information==
In the epic poem La Chanson de Roland ("Song of Roland"), Almace (alternatively Almice or Almacia) is the sword of Turpin, Archbishop of Reims, one of the last three Franks to die at the Battle of Roncevaux Pass, along with Roland and Gualter de Hum. According to the Norse saga version about Charlemagne, it is the second best of 3 swords forged by the legendary blacksmith Weyland, including Durendal (the best) and Kurt (Curtana).
The etymology of the name is uncertain, but it may be derived from German, or from the Old Norse all macht, meaning Almighty.
