it seems to me i'm becoming a spammer regarding new books which will appear on bronze age warfare. if it disturbs someone, please let me know.... a new book wil be released by pen & sword. as always with pen & sword books, the release date can be taken with a little pinch of salt though...

Was reading Chariot by Arthur Cotterell this morning. Worth a look. I am not convinced that cavalry followed chariots in all areas. Horse riding surely preceded it in some areas. |

The Egyptians definitely used mounted men as scouts and messengers. They were called hpytw. I'm pretty sure I mentioned this in my book. |
