Historical Model – Alexander the Great's Cavalry

The set represents the cavalrymen employed by the Macedonian army under Alexander III the Great – one of the most outstanding commanders in history. The formation known as the Hetairoi was an elite cavalry unit, forming the backbone of striking forces during large campaigns, such as the Battle of Gaugamela (331 BC) or Granicus (334 BC). Macedonia, located in today's Greece, became famous for its revolutionary tactics and the training of its riders, who played a crucial role on the battlefields of the Classical era.

Historical Period

The models depict cavalry from the ancient period, specifically from the 4th century BC (the reign of Alexander the Great – 336–323 BC), when the Macedonian Empire became one of the largest and most powerful in the ancient world.
