The Military Code
They live and die by the code. The code is law.Unlike their Parthian predecessors, the Sassanids became well versed in siege warfare, learning from their Roman adversaries and drawing techniques from Central Asian sources. This was indicative of a paradigm shift to become a more 'modern' body of men. The entire Sassanid military vehicle was streamlined; there are even sources indicating that a manual of 'Military Code' was created; technical literature that detailed organisation of forces, how to care for horses, tactical methodology, riding and archery. The Central Asian influences also helped to transform the rigid, stylistic Sassanid cavalryman into a broad, multi-talented warrior, proficient in spear, bow and sword. It is possible that the Sassanids adopted the cavalry stirrup at the same time. This knowledge was gradually disseminated across the ancient world, creating a new breed of soldier who was the forerunner of the Medieval knight; a trooper, well armoured in mail, adorned with numerous weapons, proficient in all forms of combat, and adaptable to any situation.
