MiniArt 16013 GREEK HOPLITE IV CENTURY BC "HISTORICAL FIGURES SERIES" 1/16 SCALE
DESCRIPTION:
The Greek hoplite was a heavily armored infantryman who fought in a phalanx formation. The typical formation was eight ranks deep, although some city-states fought with much deeper ranks. The hoplite was the most common type of infantry soldier in Ancient Greece from the late 8th century B.C. to the 4th century B.C.
When deployed in a compact phalanx formation, the shield on the left arm of one hoplite protected the right side of the hoplite next to him. A hoplite phalanx advanced into battle at a fast walk. Once in contact with the enemy, they stabbed with their spears from behind the shield wall.
