Mayan weapons, as well as other indigenous people's weapons, are basically made polishing and carving stones and pieces of wood. The most used stones used at the time of the arriving of the Spanish at America were the silex and the obsidian.

The obsidian was very sharp - sharper than steel, actually - and was collected at local mines, after what it was cut with hits of a splitter. It was used to make spear and a kind of sword.
