Historical background
Greek accounts, above all Arrian drawing on Megasthenes and Nearchus, describe the infantry of ancient India: archers with bamboo bows as tall as a man, together with broad swords and shields of rawhide. Besides the infantry the armies consisted of cavalry, chariots and elephants. In the 3rd century BC the Mauryas kept a large standing army.
