Animal Breeder
Trade and war both demand the right animals.Prized as commodities, animals were trapped, tamed and bred. Ownership and husbandry of exotic breeds cost money and time, and was a pursuit of the wealthy and the noble. War horses, swift racers, beasts of burden, or exotic war elephants, signs of an owner's conspicuous wealth. Horses were essential to eastern armies after the Greco-Persian Wars, replacing the functions of light chariots. Ancient cavalry could be roughly divided into two types: light skirmishers to harry the enemy at a distance, or heavily-armoured troops to engage other cavalry, outflank and then exploit the weak points of enemy formations. As well as horses, camels, dogs and elephants were conditioned and trained for war, providing shock elements for eastern generals. Camels were prized because of their ability to terrify horses by their unfamiliar smell alone!

Cavalry / Missile Cavalry / (Ara_Cav) Farasin (Arabian Light Cavalry) The tribes that provide these cavalry forces are generally nomadic, and as such they spend more time mounted than on foot, even if the mount is often a camel rather than a horse. In battle these men are a highly skilled light cavalry contingent, exceedingly useful for skirmishing, pursuit, and harassment. |

Cavalry / Chariot / (Ara_sabean_chariots) Seregelanan (Sabaean Chariots) The only chariot image that specifically depicts military use is at Hafrat Berd, where two of the three men in the chariot box are wielding weapons. The man in front appears to have a sword, and the man in back may have a bow. There are always two horses, but the box, its position, the number of spokes, wheel construction, and the number of men (1-3) are highly variable and often not very realistic. |
