Lion.Kanzen Posted October 23, 2022 Report Share Posted October 23, 2022 13 minutes ago, Charles R Sabo said: You have ignorantly stated that the Neo-Assyrian Empire ended and was then ruled under King Cyrus of Persia, when history clearly conveys that the Neo-Babylonians and King Nebuchadnezzar had defeated and ruled over the Assyrians; the Babylonians fell to King Cyrus and the Medo/Persian Empire in 539 B.C. How can anyone take your words seriously, when you twisted history so badly??? ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimate Aurelian Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 On 15/01/2017 at 1:47 AM, Sundiata said: Kush and the Persians By 609 BC, The Neo-Assyrian Empire had collapsed, and was absorbed by the Achaemenid Persian Empire under Cyrus the Great. His successor, Cambyses II, successfully conquered Egypt in 525 BC, ending the Saite Dynasty, after which he attempted the conquest of Kush I think he is talking about the first post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 what an unpolite way of saying things. Sundiata was probably referring to invaders from Africa. The Babylonians never sacked Egypt or Conquer Egypt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, it makes sense that the spare javelins would be held inside the shield in some way. So yeah, I could make a variation that is vertical for those units whose shields necessitate it. It's not just this one unit that has such clipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CovenantKillerJ Posted August 12, 2023 Report Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) Do we have any archaeological sites/physical evidence of elephant stables anywhere? Edited August 12, 2023 by CovenantKillerJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurken Khan Posted August 12, 2023 Report Share Posted August 12, 2023 @CovenantKillerJ I think the more important question is if we have proof of the use of eles. The production buildings are a game play mechanic; do we have proof of CCs, barracks, stables... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though some have argued that it is simply Indian influence that led to the bronze statuettes of elephants and the column depiction at Aborepi, I feel that its much more likely that the Kushites did use elephants, especially if the Ptolemaics did.

Alexes Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 Maspero probably collected most of the faience referenced below in around 1890s-1910 during the building and raising of the Aswan Low Dam. Does anyone have information regarding this particular type of amulet? Ref: p. 32. PL VIII #12773-1277 https://ia902203.us.archive.org/12/items/ReisnerAmulets2/ReisnerAmulets2.pdf Egyptian Museum, Turin... Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
