Garamantian Hunters

The desert is brutal, and produces brutal warriors. The hunters are proof of that.

In battle, the archer needed to be peerless. His aim had to be unfailingly precise or else he was next to useless - a mere distraction for a determined enemy force. Arrows had great power and impact but, before the development of the bodkin-point arrowhead, if they were aimed even slightly off target, they would bounce off armour rather than pierce it. The bodkin-point was thinner than its broadhead-point counterpart, and was therefore better at piercing mail and some plate armours due to its smaller surface area. Bodkin-pointed arrowheads were used mainly by the Viking Danes but caught on across Europe. However, they didn't eclipse the more common broadhead-point, which were generally better at cutting through flesh and causing serious, mortal wounds.
