Russian armors X-XVII enturies archer. XIII century
Ancient Slavs at the dawn of their history battled in essence by foot. Old-Russian state in the wars with Byzantium (X century) yet does not know cavalry. The feudalization of society and troops leads to its appearance at the end OF THE X century. To the appearance of cavalry contributes continuous war with the steppe - Pechenegs, torkami, Polovetss. To withstand against the nomads, without having available the cavalry, it was impossible.
To THE XII century Russian cavalry is added by the significant force, stops and repulses strong pressure of nomadic peoples to the boundaries of Kiev state.
Horse army consisted of the heavily armed riders - kopeyshchikov and the light cavalry - archers. Kopeyshchiki - force specially created for attack and string of decisive battle. Collision action "kopeynogo- of impact with sshibke with the enemy frequently predetermined the outcome of battle.
The designation of archers was different. They carried out "reconnaissance in force", probed the forces of enemy, enticed by his false flight, performed protection. The main weapon of archer - bow and of arrow - they were supplemented with axe, bludgeon, bulavoy, by panel or by the metallic armor, variety of which could be lamellar armor, the prototype of subsequent bakhtertsa. Into the composition of archers, in essence, entered the "young", i.e., the low on the position terms of guard.
