Hi folks, I have tried to look for the culture and tradition of ancient Indian soldiery. But when I found the broad sketches, I see that there is little to nothing available about more detailed account of day to day affairs as much as available on whther Romans or Greeks or Chinese. I may be searching wrong, so I wwant to ask you guys if any of you have sources/links regarding the resources, please post.

I wish to learn about what kind of armour they used to wear or what was the appendages used for horses to weapons etc. The details.

Armor is mention in Indian literature, but I hardly see it.
