  • Hunnic Warfare in the Fourth and Fifth Centuries C.E.: Archery and the Collapse of the Western Roman Empire
    HUNNIC WARFARE IN THE FOURTH AND FIFTH CENTURIES C.E.: ARCHERY AND THE COLLAPSE OF THE WESTERN ROMAN EMPIRE A Thesis Submitted to the Committee of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Science. TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Laura E. Fyfe 2016 Anthropology M.A. Graduate Program January 2017 ABSTRACT Hunnic Warfare in the Fourth and Fifth Centuries C.E.: Archery and the Collapse of the Western Roman Empire Laura E. Fyfe The Huns are one of the most misunderstood and mythologized barbarian invaders encountered by the Roman Empire. They were described by their contemporaries as savage nomadic warriors with superior archery skills, and it is this image that has been written into the history of the fall of the Western Roman Empire and influenced studies of Late Antiquity through countless generations of scholarship. This study examines evidence of Hunnic archery, questions the acceptance and significance of the “Hunnic archer” image, and situates Hunnic archery within the context of the fall of the Western Roman Empire. To achieve a more accurate picture of the importance of archery in Hunnic warfare and society, this study undertakes a mortuary analysis of burial sites associated with the Huns in Europe, a tactical and logistical study of mounted archery and Late Roman and Hunnic military engagements, and an analysis of the primary and secondary literature. Keywords: Archer, Archery, Army, Arrow, Barbarian, Bow, Burial Assemblages, Byzantine, Collapse, Composite Bow, Frontier, Hun, Logistics, Migration Period, Roman, Roman Empire, Tactics, Weapons Graves ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to thank my thesis advisor, Dr.

Since the military brought the first detainees to Guantánamo in January 2002, the Pentagon has consistently refused to comprehensively identify those it holds. While it has, at various times, released information about individuals who have been detained at Guantánamo, it has always maintained ambiguity about the population of the facility at any given moment, declining even to specify precisely the number of detainees held at the base. We have sought to identify the detainee population using a variety of records, mostly from habeas corpus litigation, and we have sorted the current population into subgroups using both the government’s allegations against detainees and detainee statements about their own affiliations and conduct.

He was a Attila the Hun: A Barbarian King and the Fall of Rome warlord and an astute politician, keeping a diverse confederation of tribes together for decades. He was also a successful crime lord, extorting money from his enemies with a ruthlessness that exceeded any later mafia don, says Miles Russell. Unfortunately we know very little of the man himself, for the Huns failed to write their own version of history. Born into Hunnic aristocracy early in the fifth century, Attila and his elder brother Bleda were nephews of King Rugila. The Huns were a nomadic, pastoralist society who, from the fourth century AD, had been migrating west towards the Roman Empire. Growing up, Bleda and Attila would have learnt to ride almost as soon as they could walk. They would also have been trained as archers, for the Huns were renowned for being able to dispatch arrows with great accuracy from horseback in battle. He was certainly known to have had many wives, polygamy helping to bind the Hunnic clans together. When King Rugila died inhe was succeeded by his nephews. Inhowever, Bleda was dead. Yet given what he achieved, it is hard to understand why, says John Man.

  • The Parthian Shot Newsletter of the British Horseback Archery Association
    The Parthian Shot Newsletter of the British Horseback Archery Association Issue 1, November 2009 Welcome to the Parthian Shot, occasional newsletter of the BHAA. In this inaugural issue we hope to give you an insight into the world of horseback archery from both a historical and contemporary viewpoint. In this newsletter you can expect to find articles on the finer points of riding techniques, archery skills, and opinion pieces regarding all aspects of horseback archery; including some historical background into the life and times of mounted archers throughout history. So without further ado let us saddle up with the Scythians - the original horse archers. The Scythians by Rick Lippiett Around 700 B.C., loosely allied nomad tribes conquered the steppes from the Carpathians to the Altai Mountains. The Greeks called them Scythians, the Persians named them “Saka” or “Saccae”. The related words derive from “skuza” - an ancient Indo-European word for archer (cf. English shoot). Scythians thought of themselves as the people of the bow and called themselves “Skolotoi”. Their livestock, which were their lifeblood, were fed by the grasslands; and thus the nomad tribes had to move every time their animals grazed the area clean. Horses were at the heart of this mobility Scythian Nobles - From a romanticised painting and nomads spent almost their whole lives on horseback. They were also an active warrior nation and the Scythian mounted Much of the surviving information about Herodotus mentions a royal tribe or clan, an archers were much feared across Asia the Scythians comes from the Greek elite which dominated the other Scythians.
