NKE-18 – Nubian Mercenary, Battle of Kadesh | John Jenkins Designs

NKE-18 – Nubian Mercenary continues the representation of Nubian troops serving within the military world of New Kingdom Egypt.

Nubia had been closely connected with Egypt for centuries through warfare, trade and political expansion. By the reign of Ramesses II, Egyptian authority extended far south into Nubia, and soldiers from the region were incorporated into Egyptian military forces.

Nubian warriors were particularly associated with archery, a reputation that appears repeatedly in ancient Egyptian imagery and texts.

NKE-18 can be paired with NKE-17 and NKE-19 to create a small contingent within the much larger Egyptian army. Their distinctive appearance also provides an attractive contrast to the regular Egyptian infantry.

Available through The Military Workshop – another characterful John Jenkins Designs figure representing the diverse manpower available to the pharaohs of New Kingdom Egypt.
