7 x 3 Thracian peltasts (Tin Soldier 15mm)

My take on 'Coyote Knights'
(Revell & Caesar 20mm)
A number of New World armies have 'knights' and I wondered who had what? Going back to my primary source - "Armies of the 16th Century (2) Aztec & Inca Empires" by Ian Heath - I produced a grid for those 'knights' actually mentioned.
Alligator | Maya | |||||||
Coyote | Maya Metzotec Tlaxcaltec | |||||||
Deer | Tlaxcaltec | |||||||
Duck | Tlaxcaltec | |||||||
Eagle | Aztec Guatemalan Huaxtecs Mixtec Tlaxcaltec | |||||||
Heron | Tlaxcaltec | |||||||
Jaguar | Aztec Guatemalan Huaxtecs Maya Mixtec Tlaxcaltec | |||||||
Lion | Tlaxcaltec | |||||||
Owl | Tlaxcaltec | |||||||
Puma | Tlaxcaltec | |||||||
Quetzal | Maya | |||||||
Snake/Serpent | Maya |
Seems like the Tlaxcaltecs had the greatest variety and most had both Jaguar & Eagle. Will need to look at other sources to see if I can add to this table.
