Bellovesus / Atlantean Hillman

As I already mention how Plato described army of Atlantis.
There is mention about irregural warriors from hills north of city.
Still believe Atlantis was land set around Richat structure in west Africa. So I designed this hillman with african influnce.
Herodotos mention war equipment of Lybian (African) tribes. There was interesting part about using gazelle horns as tip of the spear and animal skin as shields.

Fun fact: shield made from elephant or hippo skin could stop bullet from pistol (tested in 19th century)

More so, hillman holding club-like weapon is inspired from my recent visite of ancient egyptian exhibition. That club or "boomerang" was used for hunting birds.

I tryed to avoid using metals for weapons and armor because I can imagine ancient hillman was poor af.
