Three ships engage in battle at close quarters, a Carrack is in the foreground. Spear throwers take
aim from the forecastle and crow's nest. The type of ship occupied by
their enemy is not clear, it may be a Cog. There is a third
ship in the background also attacking the Cog. A soldier in the crow's
nest hurls down what may be a large stone. By the mid 16th century, small breech loading cannon and a variety of muzzle loading cannon had been developed, such weapons are visible in the Cog. Marines in the Carrack are firing an early long barreled, shoulder gun. |
