Description

Siege machinery first gave the impression within the West all over the Carthaginian invasion of Sicily within the late-5th century BC, within the type of siege towers and battering rams. After a 50-year hiatus these weapons of war re-gave the impression within the Macedonian armies of Philip II and Alexander the Great, a period that saw the peak in their development within the Ancient World. The experience of warfare with both the Carthaginians all over the later-3rd century BC, and Philip V of Macedon all over the early-2nd century BC, in the end prompted the introduction of the siege tower and the battering ram to the Roman arsenal. This title traces the advance and use of these weapons across the entire of this era.
