NKE-20C – Libyan Mercenary | John Jenkins Designs

To the west of the Nile Valley lived various Libyan peoples whose relationship with ancient Egypt alternated between conflict, migration, trade and military service.

NKE-20C – Libyan Mercenary represents a warrior from this western world serving within an Egyptian military setting.

Foreign and regionally recruited troops provide an important reminder that the armies of the ancient world were not always culturally uniform. Egyptian rulers could employ or incorporate warriors from neighbouring regions, including Nubia and Libya.

The figure offers a particularly interesting contrast when displayed alongside the regular Egyptian infantry and Nubian troops of the NKE range. Rather than another identical soldier, NKE-20C helps create the appearance of a force drawing manpower from across Egypt's wider sphere of influence.

Available through The Military Workshop – a colourful John Jenkins Designs character for adding greater variety to a New Kingdom Egyptian army.
