Bone-Cracker
The Bone-Cracker was a rare, heavy mace with a spiked, cylindrical head dating to the 1st century BCE in Egypt. While cumbersome to wield on account of its weight, its power made it highly effective as a swift, single-strike execution weapon.
During his hunt for the Order of the Ancients, the Medjay Bayek of Siwa commonly found this shield in the inventories of blacksmiths and on bodies and in chests during his travels throughout Egypt.[1] The Phylakitai Gennadios also had a weapon like this in his possession.[2]

Behind the scenes
The model of the Bone-Cracker, a weapon in Assassin's Creed: Origins, was recycled as the model of the Morning Star, a weapon in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, and its kind. The model of this weapon seems to be based on a mace from Roman Egypt dated to 30 B.C.–A.D. 364 which is now at the Metropolitan Museum of Art with accession number "15.2.6a, b".[3]
