Abstract


The aim of this article is to present a history of the former Instituto de Estudios sobre Armas Antiguas. This research centre was created by Ada Bruhn and E.F. Hoffmeyer in Denmark (1960), moved to Spain in 1962 and became linked to the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) in 1965. The Institute was the publisher of the international journal Gladius and the predecessor of the current Instituto Histórico Hoffmeyer, that belongs to the CSIC. In these pages we explain the main activities and trace the evolution of the institution, giving a starting point for future research about the history of this centre and its founders.
