Noble Numidian Cavalry
You will find no better cavalry in all of Africa, if not the world.Numidian tribesmen were raised with horses from an early age, riding bareback without a bridle, and controlling their horses by tapping the beasts between the ears with a stick. Numidan cavalry were a supremely agile force who skirmished with assured expertise, swinging around to escape as rapidly as they had arrived. They wore tunics only and carried javelins and small wicker shields. Considered the elite of the Carthaginian army during the Second Punic War, the Numidians' defection before the Battle of Zama arguably led to Scipio’s victory over Hannibal in the final battle of the conflict.
