Camel cavalry

656 battle of the First Fitna

Zamburak (, ) was a specialized form of self-propelled artillery from the early modern period featuring small swivel guns mounted on and fired from camels. Its operator was known as a zamburakchi. It was used by the gunpowder empires, especially Safavid Iran, the Timurid Empire, Afsharid Iran, and the Afghan Durrani Empire, due to the ruggedness of the Iranian plateau, which made typical transportation of heavy cannons difficult.
