The findings at the site of Nataruk in Turkana, Kenya, have been interpreted as evidence of inter-group conflict and warfare in antiquity, but this interpretation has been challenged. In Japan, the ancient period is considered to end with the rise of feudalism in the Kamakura period in the 12–13th century.Įarly ancient armies continued to primarily use bows and spears, the same weapons that had been developed in prehistoric times for hunting. In India, the ancient period ends with the decline of the Gupta Empire (6th century) and the beginning of the Muslim conquests there from the 8th century. In China, it can also be seen as ending of the growing role of mounted warriors needed to counter the ever-growing threat from the north in the 5th century and the beginning of the Tang dynasty in 618 AD.

In Europe and the Near East, the end of antiquity is often equated with the Fall of Rome in 476 AD, the wars of the Eastern Roman Empire on its Southwestern Asian and North African borders, and the beginnings of the Muslim conquests in the 7th century. These new armies were able to help states grow in size and become increasingly centralized. Thus, organized armies developed for the first time. While the bulk of military forces were still farmers, the society could portion off each year. This allowed full-time ruling elites and military commanders to emerge. Beginning in Mesopotamia, states produced sufficient agricultural surplus. The development of first city-states, and then empires, allowed warfare to change dramatically. The difference between prehistoric and ancient warfare is more organization oriented than technology oriented. I've been looking into Custom Mob Spawner, Mocreatures, multimob and MCA as they are the only mods I think would affect spawning, but Im not sure.Ancient warfare is war that was conducted from the beginning of recorded history to the end of the ancient period. Taking 10 soldiers to a Norska house, half of them were gone before we got TO the house.When finished 2 medics and 2 archers and a soldier were missing I took 7 combat NPCs to a small island to hold off zombies.2 soldiers following a commander around the farms during the day.Upon returning from a raid my 3 couriers were gone.After sleeping my lumberjack was no more.

The following happened over the last 3 days of playing a new survival map: Doesnt seem to matter whether Im at large distance or really close.

I've seen the priest at work a few times, so vanishing NPCs are definitely in range of a town hall. No death log at the town hall or items on the ground. My own collection, heres the list in a text docįirstly, excellent mod guys! Very impressive and detailed :-)Įvery so often some of my NPCs will simply vanish.
