The battle is over and the victorious Norman invaders pursue the fleeing English army. The mounted bowman in this scene is the only occurrence of a mounted Norman using a bow. The Parthian horse-bowman was not unknown to Norman tactics. ‘Parthian shot’ was a military tactic made famous by the Parthians of ancient Persia. The Parthian archers, mounted on light horses, would feign retreat; then, while at full gallop, turn their bodies back to shoot at the pursuing enemy. More looting occurs in the lower border. The scene comes to an end and is terminated by a tree. As often occurs throughout the tapestry, there is a mismatch of riders to horses in this scene.
