Taksashila Minor Settlement (Limestone) Level 4

Eastern Town (Limestone)

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	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (ind_levy_spearmen) Sainika (Indian Levy Spearmen) Most of these warriors are dressed in their everyday clothing, which includes loincloths, skirts, and short-sleeved shirts. The majority fight bare-chested, however. Spears and shields are cheap and easy to make, and spearmen make up a large part of the melee infantry.

2	200	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (ind_skirmishers) Ksipati Sainika (Indian Skirmishers) Most of these light skimishers are dressed in their everyday clothing, which includes loincloths, skirts, and short-sleeved shirts. The majority fight bare-chested, armed with daggers and throwing spears. These troops require relatively little training and financial investment, relying mostly on widespread natural skills and scant gear, while still providing some useful service.

3	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (ind_spearmen) Kauntikas (Indian Spearmen) These men, armed with spears and shields, are the mainstay of the Indian infantry. Some of the warriors wear a simple armoured corselet, made from strips of hardened leather. Their spears, which they wield in an underarm position, are made of wood or bamboo, with iron spearheads.
