Special Ops Camels: Dromedaries, Bactrians, and the Specialization of Animals in the Macedonian Army
The Macedonian army under Alexander the Great incorporated the intrepid Old World camelid in numerous ways. An investigation of two key campaigns reveals the creativity and logistical flexibility of the army and counters the current narrative that camels were of limited utility.
