Cavalry
Man in Armor
The cavalry was the most superior branch of the Mughal army. The horsemen normally recruited by mansabdars were high class people, and were better paid than foot soldiers and artillery men. They had to possess at least two of their own horses and good equipment. Normally they used swords, lances, shields, more rarely guns. Their armour was made up of steel or leather, and they wore the traditional dress of their tribes. The regular horseman was called a sowar.
Mughal cavalry also included elephants, normally used by generals. They bore well ornamented and good armour. Mainly they were used for transportation to carry heavy goods and heavy guns. Some of rajput mansabdar provided camel cavalry also. They were men from desert areas like Rajastan.
