Black Axe
The Black Axe was a battleaxe which once belonged to a famous pirate who operated in ancient Greece. After the state of Keos imprisoned the pirate, they claimed his possessions including the axe.
By the time of the Peloponnesian War, the axe was kept within the Koressia Fort in the Ancient Ruins of Kunastros region of the island. After infiltrating the fort, the Spartan misthios Kassandra found the axe within a chest she looted at the request of Xenia the pirate.[1]

Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
The Black Axe, a weapon in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, shares the same model as the commonly found Ceremonial Axe, another weapon in the same game. These are both the recycled model of the Mushussu, a weapon in Assassin's Creed: Origins, which itself was based on a type of axe called "gazelle-headed axe" from the Mughal Empire in the Indian subcontinent. Its appearance in both games is anachronistic.
