Boiotian League (Wrath of Sparta) Level 3

Foundry

The forges turn out arms and armour in great numbers.

Smithing was an essential trade in the ancient world. Since the Bronze Age fires had been used to smelt metal, and the skill of the smith forged swords and spear heads. With the arrival of iron blacksmiths sprang up in every town and city of Greece. Ploughs, axes, tools of every kind, and even jewellery were created. Yet even though smiths were skilled and necessary, theirs was a lowly trade, and never attained the status of armourers and masons. Hephaestus, the crippled son of Zeus, was the patron god of smithing. Like the trade itself, he was considered ugly and unglamorous.
