The "Khopesh" (also called "Canaanite" and "Sappara"), the sword famously associated with Egyptians by holywood in movies like the Scorpion King, was in fact invented buy Assyrian craftsmen after the bronze age began. It was developed by changed an older copper war axe named the epsilon, invented in Greece. When Assyrian warriors invaded Egypt, the defending Egyptian army discovered the Khopesh, and adopted it as a symbol of nobility and as a personal weapon. No individual has been credited with the invention of the original Khopesh.
