Trilobites armed with tridents...

 ...check out this CNN headline: https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/23/world/trilobites-trident-earliest-example-of-sexual-combat-scn/index.html

Appears that trilobites, some species, had antlers much like stag beetles. Of course, there's one flaw...the females seem to grow them too. Which means they may not have been used to fight for mates.

(Yes, female reindeer have antlers, but that's because they also use them as snow shovels).
