Ancient armies didn't make much use of horsemen in battle, mainly because they didn't have stirrups, which meant the rider couldn't do much except hang on to the horse. Foot soldiers learned the value of armor, but it just made the cavalryman's job more dangerous, since falling off a horse is made worse if you're wearing iron. The introduction of the stirrup made it possible to create the heavy, or armored horseman, known as a cataphract.
