INCA-19A – Inca Slinger
Before Spanish forces entered the heart of the Inca Empire in the 1530s, the Inca possessed their own sophisticated military traditions developed through decades of imperial expansion.
INCA-19A – Inca Slinger represents one part of that established military system.
The sling was familiar throughout the Andes and could be used by troops accustomed to handling it from an early age. A well-thrown stone could be a dangerous projectile, particularly when many slingers were operating together.
This figure is therefore useful for moving a collection beyond the popular image of the conquest as simply Spanish steel and horses confronting close-combat warriors. The Inca army possessed missile troops of its own and could engage an opponent before direct contact.
Place INCA-19A alongside the INCA-18 series, using the different poses to create a loose line of warriors delivering sustained missile fire.
Available from The Military Workshop – a detailed John Jenkins Designs Inca Slinger representing the established battlefield traditions of the Andean empire.
