Give them archers, roman tactics, and a strong navy, and the Atlanteans would dominate the Mediterranean as in the legends.

IIRC, the cretan bow is a U shaped, simple composite bow, made with wood, reinforced with bones and sinew. The scythian one was a recurved composite bow. But for atlanteans, both are OK.
