Description: Minnesota based institute with mission statement, sword documentation project, research and articles, and typology.
The Oakeshott Institute was founded by Ewart Oakeshott and his wife Sybil Marshall with the purpose of furthering research and education in the field of ancient arms and armor. Ewart's life long study of weapons and armor helped revolutionize our understanding of Medieval culture. He loved sharing his knowledge in this field and combined with the commitment to education Sybil and he shared inspired a desire for their work to continue into the future. Thus The Oakeshott Institute a 501c(3) nonprofit education and research Institute was formed, with the objective of supporting research and distributing the information to as wide an audience as possible.
