Steel isn't an alloy ;-)

Yes it is.

It's an alloy of iron and carbon, though certain types of steel include other elements. For example, Stainless Steel contains a significant proportion of Chromium to provide the corrosion resistant properties. Other common elements used in other types of steel include Tungsten, Nickel, Cobalt and Manganese.

What would "troop or band of people in a permanent enclosed construction over a plot of land located in a Thorp " be ?

[Sharpielein]

Yes it is.

It's an alloy of iron and carbon, though certain types of steel include other elements. For example, Stainless Steel contains a significant proportion of Chromium to provide the corrosion resistant properties. Other common elements used in other types of steel include Tungsten, Nickel, Cobalt and Manganese.

I stand corrected. It seems like my past definition of "alloy" (compound of two or more metals) was wrong ... anyhow, my proposal was "bronze sword".
