An Entity of Type: architectural structure, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Noric steel was a steel from Noricum, a Celtic kingdom located in modern Austria and Slovenia. The proverbial hardness of Noric steel is expressed by Ovid: "...durior [...] ferro quod noricus excoquit ignis..." which roughly translates to "...harder than iron which Noric fire tempers [was Anaxarete towards the advances of Iphis]..." and it was widely used for the weapons of the Roman military after Noricum joined the Empire in 16 BC.

  • El ferro de Nòrica (en llatí: ferrum Noricum) era l'acer provinent de la regió Nòrica (Norica) durant el període de l'Imperi Romà. Ovidi ja esmenta la duresa d'aquest tipus d'acer: "...durior [...] ferro quod noricus excoquit ignis..." més dur que el ferro temperat pel foc de Nòrica. Aquest acer va ser molt usat pels militars romans. Aquest mineral de ferro va ser extret de dues muntanyes de l'actual Àustria anomenade actualment Erzberg "muntanyes de mena". Una d'elles està situada a Hüttenberg, Caríntia i l'altra muntanya és a Eisenerz, Estíria, estan separades per uns 50 km de distància. (ca)
  • Ferrum Noricum, lateinisch für norisches Eisen oder norischer Stahl, war ein weithin bekannter kohlenstoffhaltiger, härtbarer Stahl aus dem keltischen Königreich und der späteren römischen Provinz Noricum während der Zeit des Römischen Reichs. (de)

The proverbial hardness of Noric steel is expressed by Ovid: "...durior [...] ferro quod noricus excoquit ignis..." which roughly translates to "...harder than iron which Noric fire tempers [was Anaxarete towards the advances of Iphis]..." and it was widely used for the weapons of the Roman military after Noricum joined the Empire in 16 BC. The iron ore was quarried at two mountains in modern Austria still called Erzberg "ore mountain" today, one at Hüttenberg, Carinthia and the other at Eisenerz, Styria, separated by c. 70 km. The latter is the site of the modern Erzberg mine. Buchwald identifies a sword of c. 300 BC found in Krenovica, Moravia as an early example of Noric steel due to a chemical composition consistent with Erzberg ore. A more recent sword, dating to c. 100 BC and found in Zemplin, eastern Slovakia, is of extraordinary length for the period (95 cm, 37 in) and carries a stamped Latin inscription (?V?TILICI?O), identified as a "fine sword of Noric steel" by Buchwald. A center of manufacture was at Magdalensberg. (en)
  • L'acciaio norico (latino: chalybs noricus) era un acciaio ad alto contenuto di carbonio prodotto nell'antica regione norica e famoso in tutto l'Impero romano, dove era impiegato per la produzione di armi, per la sua durezza. Un centro di produzione era Magdalensberg. (it)
