I'm just starting to learn 5e, so I might miss something obvious.

The "Equipment" section of the Cleric description assumes that Cleric can be proficient in warhammers:

Starting Equipment

  • a Warhammer (if proficient)

However, there's no Warhammer proficiency in the list:

Starting Proficiencies

Armor: Light Armor, Medium Armor, shields
Weapons: simple Weapons
Tools: none
Skills: Choose two from History, Insight, Medicine, Persuasion, and Religion

Neither I can see one in the "Features" column in the progression table. The only thing about gaining a bonus proficiency is the Life Domain description:

Bonus Proficiency

When you choose this domain at 1st level, you gain proficiency with Heavy Armor.

But it is about Heavy Armor proficiency, not Warhammers.

How can a Cleric get it? And can other classes be proficient with weapons/tools that aren't mentioned in their base descriptions?
