Machines, their origins and their uses

The Bricole

bricole

Machine with human traction, it was been useful by the women since the top of the ramparts. This position in top of the walls was extremely convenient to bombard at sight the attackers. It is besides a stone launched by a trifle which reached and killed Simon de Monfort with the head office of Toulouse. That one also can be handled by the assistance at the time of the meetings of shooting of Larressingle.
