Egyptian Archers - 28mm - Hail Caesar - WGH-CEM-23

Egyptian Archers of the early New Kingdom, including the native Egyptian 17th Dynasty and the 18th Dynasty (New Kingdom). Archers such as these would have appeared in the armies of the Pharaohs: Khamose, Ahmose and Thutmose III up until the early 19th Dynasty.

The ordinary foot archers of this period still used the double convex or stave bow, as the composite bow had not yet filtered down from the chariot archers to the infantry. No armour or protective headgear was worn by archers at this time and, as such, they can also be used as Light Skirmisher Archers in the later 19th and 20th Dynasties.

Pack contains 8 metal foot figures.

Note: Models supplied unassembled and unpainted
