Historical background
According to Arrian, Indian archers carried a bow as long as their body, which they braced on the ground with the foot when shooting. Their long arrows, by this account, pierced shield and armour, but on wet ground the weapon was hard to handle. Archers made up a large part of the infantry of Indian armies.
