  • Military Technology in the 12Th Century
    Zurich Model United Nations MILITARY TECHNOLOGY IN THE 12TH CENTURY The following list is a compilation of various sources and is meant as a refer- ence guide. It does not need to be read entirely before the conference. The breakdown of centralized states after the fall of the Roman empire led a number of groups in Europe turning to large-scale pillaging as their primary source of income. Most notably the Vikings and Mongols. As these groups were usually small and needed to move fast, building fortifications was the most efficient way to provide refuge and protection. Leading to virtually all large cities having city walls. The fortifications evolved over the course of the middle ages and with it, the battle techniques and technology used to defend or siege heavy forts and castles. Designers of castles focused a lot on defending entrances and protecting gates with drawbridges, portcullises and barbicans as these were the usual week spots. A detailed ref- erence guide of various technologies and strategies is compiled on the following pages. Dur- ing the third crusade and before the invention of gunpowder the advantages and the balance of power and logistics usually favoured the defender. Another major advancement and change since the Roman empire was the invention of the stirrup around 600 A.D. (although wide use is only mentioned around 900 A.D.). The stirrup enabled armoured knights to ride war horses, creating a nearly unstoppable heavy cavalry for peasant draftees and lightly armoured foot soldiers. With the increased usage of heavy cav- alry, pike infantry became essential to the medieval army.

    Attack Attack Defence Weapon Cut Piercing Bludgeon Weapon Length TN TN Haft TN Type Damage Damage Damage (Strike) (Thrust) Huscarl Axe 2H, L 7 - 9 Wood Axe, Heavy ST+3 - ST Proficiency: Huscarl Axe / Dane Axe. The Huscarl axe, or Dane-axe, was a two handed axe introduced by the Vikings in the late tenth century but which soon became popular with Saxons as well, and was probably developed from the axes used to slaughter animals. The blades from existing examples in museums demonstrate that they have very thin section blades, designed to hack flesh apart. If they were as bulky as the smaller axe, it would prove to be too heavy for any sensible use. Usually used only by the wealthier semi-professional warriors it has a broad blade with a cutting edge of about 22 - 45cm (9" - 18") and a long wooden ash haft some 1.2 - 1.5m (4' - 5' long). The difference in use of this type of axe and polearms, is that the axe is swung with both hands far out on the haft, this gives extra range and power, but very unhandy for defense. The Bayeux tapestry and accounts from the battle of Hastings show these Dane-axes wielded by the Huscarls cleaving 'both man and horse in two' at the same time. The Dane-axe's only drawback was that you need to have both hands on the shaft of the axe, with your shield slung across your back, leaving your front wide open to attack. The introduction of the Dane-axe is credited to King Cnut, who is also credited with the whole concept of the Karl or Huscarl.

  • Pole-Weapons in the Sagas of Icelanders: a Comparison of Literary and Archaeological Sources Jan H
    Acta Periodica Duellatorum, Scholarly Volume, Articles 177 DOI 10.1515/apd-2016-0006 Pole-weapons in the Sagas of Icelanders: a comparison of literary and archaeological sources Jan H. Orkisz, Chapitre des Armes (Paris), [email protected] Abstract – The Icelandic sagas are a major source of information on the Vikings and their fighting prowess. In these stories, several mysterious pole-weapons appear, which are often called “halberds”, for lack of a better word. In order to better identify what these weapons could have been, and to provide a better understanding of how the sagas relate to the Viking-age events they describe, we confront textual and archaeological evidence for several of these weapons (the höggspjót, the atgeirr, the kesja, the krókspjót, the bryntroll and the fleinn), keeping in mind the contextualisation of their appearances in sagas. The description of the use of each weapon allows to pick several candidates likely to correspond to the studied word. Without a perfect knowledge of what context the authors of the sagas wanted to describe, it appears to be impossible to give a final answer. However, we show that some specific types of spears are good candidates for some of the studied weapons. Keywords – Early Middle Ages; Viking Age; pole-weapons; archaeology. I. INTRODUCTION I.1. Context Vikings, their weapons and fighting prowess have fascinated people and raised a great interest since the 19th century, with the rise of romantic nationalism. Among the major sources that stimulate the imagination about these Scandinavian warriors are the Icelandic sagas, which tell the tales of many Viking-age heroes.

  • Since the First Caveman in Prehistoric Times Picked up a Rock and Smashed Someone Over the Head with It, Man Has Used Weapons to Kill, Maim, and Wound
    Since the first caveman in prehistoric times picked up a rock and smashed someone over the head with it, man has used weapons to kill, maim, and wound. The first weapons were intended to make hunting easier, but as people started to transition from a nomadic lifestyle to permanent villages, weapons started to be used against other humans. Civilizations became more sophisticated and the social class system and power hungry leaders emerged. As battles for control of territories broke out in attempts to add to the power and wealth of these leaders, it became clear that the number and effectiveness of weapons would decide which factions would have power. With this realization, and as weaknesses were found within current weapons technology, man sought to make deadlier weapons. The desire for power and the desire to create a weapon with minimal to no weaknesses sparked the evolution of weapons. Materials started changing and with them the process of producing weapons changed. Weapons became more durable, more lethal, and longer range. To increase the number of weapons produced, people looked for the fastest and cheapest way to produce high quality arms. Although those with power wanted to use weapons to increase their own authority and further separate themselves from the lower classes, the quest to create the ultimate weapon and further advance weaponry actually had the effect of empowering the lower classes. The first weapons used were sticks, rocks, and other natural objects, which were first used in prehistoric times. These were used to hit things or were thrown. These objects increased the power of a blow and when thrown, increased the range of attack, although this was dependent on the ability of the thrower.

De enkle redskapsøksene fortsetter å være til stede gjennom hele vikingtiden, men innen starten av det andre årtusen e.Kr. er spesialiserte stridsøkser blitt utviklet, og har inntatt sin plass i noen av de mer statuspregede gravene. Spesielt gjelder dette den store og fryktinngytende bredøksen, som kunne utfordre selve sverdet som prangende drapsredskap. Kun et fåtall økser med skaftbeslag er funnet, og nær alle er bredøkser. Disse øksene fremstår som en fornem utgave av en i seg selv eksklusiv øksetype. I samlingen ved Kultur- historisk museum er totalt seks eksemplarer identifisert. De ble innlemmet i museets sam- linger først etter Jan Petersens verk om vikingtidens våpen i 1919, og er derfor ikke gjen- nomgått tidligere. Økser med skaftbeslag er i liten grad studert internasjonalt, og spesielt de norske funnene er svært lite kjent. Tilsvarende økser med beslag er ikke kjent for forfatteren fra øvrige samlinger i Norge. Formålet er derfor å presentere samlingen av slike økser fra Sørøst-Norge, samt å trekke inn tilsvarende utenlandske paralleller for sammenligning. Analyser av legeringen i de norske øksenes skaftbeslag er utført som del av dette studiet, og bringes inn i vurderingen.
