Examples of One-Man Army in Oral Tradition include:

  • In Ramayana, Hanuman killed hundreds of Rakshasas after he has found Sita in Lanka.
  • Some accounts of the Battle of Badon Hill claim that King Arthur slew 960 Saxons in a single day.
  • In the Tain Bo Cuailnge, Queen Medb decides to invade Ulster just as all of it's men fall ill due to an age-old curse. The only soldier unaffected is the teenage Cu Chulainn. He manages to single-handedly hold off Medb's forces for months - and this is before he goes into a warp spasm.
