Class: missile · Category: infantry · Men per unit: 40
The Euzonoi are fierce, well-trained missile troops. These men may be lightly armoured skirmishers, but they are well-protected by their helmets and large thureos shields. While they can defend themselves in melee with shorts swords or thrusting spears, their main weapons are their javelins. The ancient Greek javelin consisted of a wooden shaft with a leaf-shaped iron head that was sometimes barbed. Most javelins had a so called ankyle (a cord loop) fixed to their point of balance. Before throwing the javelin, the soldier would place his first two fingers through the loop, which increased the range from about 75 to somewhere between 90 and 100 metres (Spence, Historical Dictionary of Ancient Greek Warfare, p. 186).
