HistoryEdit

The Battering Ram was an ancient siege engine built to break open masonry walls and break wooden gates. In early models it was simply a large log carried by multiple men and swung at gates using momentum to open said gates. Later, they would be rolled with wheels, suspended with rope, and have a arrow resistant canopy. Eventually the Battering Ram became obsolete due to the introduction of gunpowder.

TriviaEdit
