The Caetrati Cavalry were a distinctive Iberian unit, valued as swift moving scouts and raiders, strong against enemy cavalry: superb for pursuing broken enemy units, and moving against the enemy flanks and rear. They were able to stand off, skirmishing with javelins, or charge with their falcata and caetra.
