Author Description

This book looks at the Predynastic Period of Egypt when the First Armv of Hunter-Warrior-Soldier emerged at the crossing of the military threshold. This is best described as a state in military evolution, where various emerging societies worldwide, at one stage or another participate in organizing an Army of Soldiers for war. Beginning with Predynastic Hunter-Warrior bands and other early depictions of combat between armed Warriors, sieges, and war canoes that likely dominated the campaign to unify Egypt, the book overviews the archaeology, and research that shows the likely appearance of Predynastic Egyptian Warriors, the weapons that were used, and how the First Armies might have fought battles in this era. Significantly, Predynastic Egyptian warfare was dominated by river navigation. The war canoe, or reed boats became the means to deliver large numbers of Warriors along the Nile.
