Catapult |
The catapult was created primarily for shooting down enemy walls and take by assault the castles. It is said that the first to use it for this purpose were the Greeks. Catapults are siege weapons that were used in wars and conflicts of the Middle Ages. The first catapults were used at very large distances, making it very difficult to build and use. This forced the designers and engineers to work on their shape, weight, size, design and mobility, as were weapons needed in the great battles. In this way it was possible to get an easier to handle and move, which could participate in the battles catapult.
It is also known to these devices with the velopoietica Latin name. Larger models were mounted on strong wooden pallets; the trigger or drive this type of crossbow tightened by ropes to be attached with a hook. Another type of catapult torque applied the principle to throw stones or heavy objects on walls and moats: coiled ropes with winches to take back the drive. smaller catapults, which were portable were also used. See Fortifications.
