assagai
african throwing spear, seen in almost every film about africa shot during the years of colonial rule, usually in the hands of some "bloodthirsty savages", there's about a thousand of em in "Zulu" (1964).
originates from the Berber: zaġāya, Old French: azagaie, Old Spanish: azagaya, Arabic: az-zaġāyah.
The assagai was also one of the teams in wip3out, easily the coolest in the game, a real quick and agile little ship, but had crappy shields so it would often explode.
assagai also refers to a south african prog-rock band active in the 1970s, they did this song "cocoa", it's quite nice.
