Medieval Crossbows and Longbows



Romans used crossbows as early as the fourth century A.D., however evidence of their use has be found in other parts of the world as well. Crossbows were first brought to England by the Normans in 1066 and soon became an important weapon in history. These Medieval Crossbows were used in open warfare as well as for hunting and were widely employed in England throughout Europe. In fact, the large crossbow was more powerful than any longbow and whereas the lighter crossbows were quite effective for use in the field by armor clad soldiers, the large and giant crossbow were used in the attack and defense of fortified places such as castles. These giant crossbows were crucial in attacks and were able to shoot a bolt or burning missile with such power to impale a stone wall, however the castle tower afforded an advantageous position for their use as the bolts had a much farther reach when employed at the top of a fortified wall.
