Granadan Jinetes

Born of the Andalusi frontier wars, the jinetes ride light, unarmored horses and fight with javelins, short swords, and the heart-shaped leather adarga. Their hit-and-run skirmishes, drawn from Berber tactics carried across the Strait, dictate the pace of warfare on the Iberian peninsula, and neighboring realms swiftly imitate them in turn.
