Kartvelian cavalry I BC-I AD
I. Gagoshidze THE IBERIAN HORSEMAN OF THE FIRST CENTURY(Summary)
The paper is part of a monograph, “TheKingdom of Kartli (Iberia) and Rome in the 1stcent. B.C – 1st cent. A.D”, compiled in 1996-1998with the financial aid of the INTAS and dealing with the Iberian military equipment (weapons,armour, harness).The present paper is primarily based on therich archaeological collection of weapons, armourand parts of harness, obtained during the excavations of the royal palace at Dedoplis Gora,though all other relevant finds of the samechronology, coming from other regions of Georgiaat the disposal of the author, have been taken into consideration as well.Besides, 25 representations of armoured horsemen engraved on the bone plaques discovered at the royal palace of Dedoplis Gorahave been included in the study. One of theplaques even depicts the scene of combat betweenarmoured horsemen.As during the 1st cent. B.C. – 1st cent. A.D.Rome led the whole world in the military field, thepaper deals with the local finds in relation to theRoman material, as well as data provided by Graeco-Latin narrative sources.Archaeological finds corroborate thein formation of written sources, which names lances and bows as the principal weapons of the Iberians. According to the same sources, theirmilitary forces comprised both infantry andcavalry, the latter being divided into lightly andheavily armed horsemen.The Georgians used a compound bow - its ends covered with bone plates – similar to the Roman bows. But, a more advanced type of bow has beenfound at Dedoplis Gora – not only the ends, butalso the middle part of it was covered with boneplates. Bows of this type were introduced intoEurope by the Huns only in the period of the Völkerwanderung.The close contacts established by the kingdomof Iberia with nomadic tribes of the Eurasian steppes account for such early penetration of the Hunnish bow into Georgia. The Iberian state power holding tight control over the Caucasian passes not only managed to exploit nomadicmilitary forces for the political benefit of Kartli,but, to some extent, even regulated their peace fultrade with Western Anterior Asia and eastern Roman provinces. This key strategic element guaranteed the petty kingdom of Iberia its fairlyimportant place within the political scope of the superpowers of that period – Rome and Parthia.The so-called Sarmatian-type three-winged hooked arrowhead represented the only type of military arow heads in Iberia of the Early Roman period. More than 800 such arrowheads werediscovered at Dedoplis Gora. As a rule, they wereplaced in quivers with bows.The fact that along with the ordinary ironsocketed spearheads, Sarmatian spearheads withhooped sockets were found allows the author tosuggest the presence of Sarmatian warriors in the garrison guarding the royal palace of Dedoplis Gora.Spear shafts of the Iberians, like those of the Romans, ended in iron knobs.Iberian warriors used to fight with long piercing swords and unlike the Romans, woreshort daggers attached to the right thigh.The principal type of iron defensive armour inIberia was lorica squamata, though the Roman influence probably accounts for the discovery oflorica hamata at Dedoplis Gora. Unlike theRomans, the Iberians did not use metallic helmets.A fairly complete picture of harness isprovided by engraved bone plaques unearthed atDedoplis Gora. Their local origin becomes clear judging by both representations of horsemen andhorse harnesses and inscriptions engraved onsome of the plaques, done in the so-called Armaziscript, spread in Georgia. Garments of equestrians,hunched saddles, girth, reins, halter, ribbons attached to breast, horse-hair and belly, as well astheir buckles are clearly discernible. Actaully,only the following metallic details have survived:rings, buckles, bridles. It can be concluded that,apart from traditional bridles with cheek-pieces,simple, quite modern bridles were also in use in Georgia of the 1st cent. as a result of the contactswith Rome. The analysis of representations on thebone plaques proves that the Georgians were familiar with curb-bit and snaffle-bit attached tohorse together with ordinary bridle in order to haltthe horse immediately and achieve swiftmaneouvring.There were no stirrups in the 1st cent., butriders used to drive horses by spurring them,especially during the battle.Military equipment of the Iberians in the 1stcent. fully met all the requirements and standardsof that period. This, in turn, predetermined, tosome extent the further internal and internationalpolitical and military successes achieved by the kingdom of Iberia in the context of the international competition of Rome and Parthia.The most vivid example of those developments was the territorial expansion of Kartli at the expense of Albania and Armenia, as well as the fact that by the beginning of the 2nd cent. the borders of Iberia reached the Black Sea littoral.

PLEASE ADD THESE for Pontus and Hayastan! I love that Part of the map, And i want to see more unique units from this place. This is a place in the world, that we never get to see much of in any other games, or even TV / movies.
Just curious, what do you think, how many Georgian units should be in the mod?
