Etymology of HULBARD

The word "halberd" or "hulbard" has its origins in Middle English and Old French. It can be traced back to the 14th century, where it was initially referred to as "hellebarde" in Old French. The Old French term was derived from the Middle High German word "helmbarte" or "helmbarde", combining the words "helm" meaning "handle" or "haft", and "barte" indicating an axe or a cleaving tool.

Ultimately, the English term "halberd" emerged in the late 15th century, combining the Middle English words "helve" (handle) and "bard" or "berd" (a cutting or striking weapon). The word evolved throughout history as different variations emerged, ultimately settling on "halberd" as the commonly used term.
