New Kingdom Egyptian Close-Combat Troops (Variant I)

Description

These are the early New Kingdom Egyptian regular close fighters of the native Egyptian 17th Dynasty and New Kingdom 18th Dynasty.

Such warriors fought under the Pharaohs: Khamose, Ahmose I and Thutmose III and who fought at the first ever recorded Battle of Megiddo against the Mitanni, Syrians and Canaanites.

These early close fighters are un-armoured and are equipped with a Spear, Axe and a Shield. It appears that no helmets were worn by the common regular foot soldiers at this time.
