Cases 7-10 in Room C display weapons of bronze and iron dating from the Early Iron Age to the Hellenistic Era. Both defensive and offensive weapons are represented, such as helmets, swords, knives, arrowheads, spearheads and a spear-butt. A particularly striking exhibit is the bronze shield cover in Case 10, which is displayed along with a copy of a spear and a bronze helmet on a marble slab from the ancient city.
