- Abstract
War tools and equipment used by human beings as hunting, war and status indicators show cultural and periodic differences. However, combat vehicles are divided into two basic groups as defensive and offensive vehicles. Attack tools were used to eliminate the enemy and defensive tools were used to protect themselves, and they were constantly tried to improve. Despite the scarcity of excavations and surveys in Eastern Thrace, various tools for both attack and defense have been identified. It is seen that they were mostly left as grave gifts to the Tumuli, as well as settlements and singular finds. When we look at the war vehicles in Eastern Thrace, they consist of defense tools such as armor, helmet, shield and attack tools such as swords, spearheads, arrowheads and slingshots. One of the most common uses from the region is the arrow and spear tip. The most common tools are armor and shield. Although the earliest finds are Kozman Deresi clouds, historically it is seen that the finds are concentrated especially in two date ranges. The first group is from the 4th century BC, and the second group is from the 1st-2nd century AD. century between. If we look at the time periods in which these two time periods are concentrated, the first corresponds to the period of Macedonian and the second Roman imperial domination.
