Cardaces
text:
The Cardaces were a professional heavy infantry mustering of the Achaemenid Persian army. They were formed some time before the Macedonian invasion. There are debates among historians about the armament and tactics used by the Cardaces. The Persian army had earlier become heavily dependent upon Greek mercenaries and it may have been intended that the Cardaces – as Persian subjects – would complement the mercenaries. According to Kambouris (2022), Kardaka may refer to the ethnic Persian draftees
