Being the nerd that I am I had to look this up, apperantely most the bulk of the art work that depict Hades or Pluto with double pronged spear are reconstructions from the renisaunce it's not known whether or not this was ever so in authentic ancient art. The bident however was a legitimate weapon used in ancient Rome and Greece mostly for hunting hair. If you do a google image search you'll note that some are llike you describe have a smaller spear, others have a protuding centure that isn't sharp and yet others just have two prongs with nothing sticking out from the center. I'm guessing it has something to do with the smithing technique maybe having one in the center give it more stability makes it harder to break, maybe sometimes they wanted to save on materials or something. That statue was done by a sculpter from the 1700s this might explain why the style is so different from the others. Hey are you able to remove the snow effect from this wiki? I would be much abliged if you could do that.
