Ma'in (Imperator Augustus) Minor Settlement (Iron) Level 4

Eastern Town (Iron)

Small farming settlements were the backbone of ancient civilisations in the east, feeding the great cities such as Antioch and Seleucia. Situated to exploit good land, fishing, mining or quarrying, defence was often too expensive to be more than a secondary consideration. As the populations of the great cities increased, surplus food from these farming communities became essential. As small military garrisons were positioned to protect valuable resources and trade routes, there was a slow growth of many hamlets into towns, as people and trade passed.

1	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Ara_Levy_Spear) Muqrabe Lukhata (Arabian Spearmen) These men are not levies per se, and are generally superior to pantodapoi and such eastern spear levies, having lived in the harsh desert and having experienced a raid or two in their time.

2	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Ara_Slingers) Qala'in Arabi (Arabian Slingers) Slingers are common in Arabian armies, being levied from the nomadic tribes. These men are mostly lower class herders. The tribesmen are not wealthy, so they march to war in only simple garments, carrying a light shield and their own, often homemade sling, in addition to a dagger for self-defence.
