Details
The unit leader is equipped with a bronze mace, although axes were becoming more widely seen at this point. Possibly because of the increased contact with the Kimmerians and Skythians of the steppes. Rank is thought to be displayed on the helmet, via bands of bronze inlay. Commands would have been issued to the unit with a horn or trumpet, this allowed complex orders to be issued without the enemy necessarily being able to understand them.
The standard bears a depiction of the god Ashur on a golden disc. The winged figure was later adopted by the Persian empire and is still used to this day by the Zoroastrianism religion.
Pack contains 3 metal figures
