Missile Trieres - Etruscan Archers
A large contingent of archers can make short work of enemy crews.Good archers will prove their worth many times over, even in a single battle.
Of all the warships found in the ancient world, it is the trireme, or trieres, that remains the most famous and recognisable. Nearly all Hollywood 'sword and sandal' movies will include a trireme somewhere. The vessel was entirely designed for war. Its name came from the three rows of oars carried on each side, stacked above each other in staggered columns to give the rowers some room to work. The top row of oars pivoted on a rowlock, or oarlock, mounted on an outrigger projecting from the hull. This allowed the top oars to pitch down at a sharper angle to reach the sea without getting tangled in the lower ones. The trireme was a greyhound of a ship, capable of high-speed dashes with a well-trained crew and, contrary to popular belief, not all rowers were slaves. Aboard Greek vessels they were citizens, and were given respect, not the lash. They were also largely fair-weather ships, and unsuited to rough seas such as the Atlantic; the lowest level of oars were, at most, less than half a metre above the waterline. That, however, did not stop the trireme being a superb weapon against other ships: a high-speed ramming attack could rip a hole in the side of almost any target. The type was also large enough to be used in other ways, which lead to it carrying archers and assorted light artillery pieces.
(Etruscan Archers)
The Etruscans, like the other eminent Greek and Latin peoples, had a strong military tradition. Like most other ancient societies, the Etruscans conducted their campaigns during the summer months, when the climate and weather were favourable to do so. Mainly, they raided neighbouring settlements, defended themselves against conquest attempts, and combated piracy. Warfare was considered an effective economic benefit - successful military efforts yielded strategic resources, prestige goods, and slaves. Prisoners were highly valued, to be ransomed back to their families at a high price or sacrificed to honour fallen leaders, such as those made by Achilles for Patroclus. The tombs of wealthy Etruscans were filled with shields, spears, swords, crested helmets and bronze armour, indicating their status in life. In cases where their equipment was damaged, representative sculpture was buried instead. The robust spear points and wide blades found in Etruscan grave sites resemble early Roman weaponry, showing their extensive adoption of the Etruscans' ways of war.
