Terracotta Statuette Prom Myrina, showing an Indian war-elephant crushing a Celt, perhaps a reference to Antiochus I's victory over the Galatians about 272 B.C. Elephants, often described as the tanks of ancient warfare, were
an important element in the armies of Hellenistic times, notably in the Seleucid army, which secured them from India, and that of the Ptolemies, which got them from north Africa.
Rounded Tower In The Walls Of Assus (northwestern Turkey). Built in ashlar masonry in the Pergamene style of the second century B.C., this tower bears witness to Hellenistic developments in siege warfare - slit windows for
bolt-projecting catapults are set half-way up, and broader openings for stone-projectors at the top.
