Some of the problem is that we use terms dfferently today. At the time, the "hammer" was the spikey part. The flat bludgeoning part was called a "poll".
A pollhammer was a hammer (spike) with a poll on the back.
A pollaxe was an axe with a poll on the back.Author: Bronze Age Military Equipment, Pen and Sword Books
