Owns pretty much everything
Slide2Knight of the medieval times
When they were very young children they were sent to live with uncles where they learned to be obedient and courteous. They learned about armor and how to take care of it and they served their master. Almost everyone learned how to use crossbows and bow and arrows. They usually needed hunters the most in winter when food was scarce. In a knight battle they never used bow and arrows, they always fought man to man. They learned how to ride a horse and they learned how to use lances. Knights had to be educated so they learned with an abacus and young boys fought with wooden swords and wooden shields. They also got to play games, but no one was gentle, everyone was fierce. When they became knights ,the night before they didn’t eat or sleep, they just prayed. At dawn they bathed and got dressed as a knight. Their coat of arm must be shown on their shield and tunic. When he went to the king, he got on his knees and the king tapped his shoulders lightly with a sword and said a grace. There he began his journey as a knight.

Slide5A knight in shining armor
The helmet is the head piece of the armor. Next we have the Cuisse. This covers the thigh. After there’s the gauntlet. Gauntlets were the armor gloves that protected the hands. Coat of mail is taken from the Latin word maculata meaning spotty, mesh, or net. The coat of mail was worn under the armor, it is made of linked metal rings. Visors were movable parts in front of the eye part. There’s also the shoulder piece, elbow piece, knee and a gorget which is a piece of metal that protects the throat. The tasse is a series of overlapping plates which together form a short skirt. A cuirass is a breast plate from neck to waist. Next we have the Sabaton which covers the foot and is a shoe basically. Last the brassard which is the armor the protects the arm.
Slide6Weapons and the castle
Every castle had a moat, draw bridge, murder holes, tower, and portcullis.
Some weapons they used were trebuchet which was like a catapult, the ballista which was like the crossbow, and mangonel which was also like a catapult. There was also a battering ram which used a tree hanged on a chain and more than 50 men crashed into a wall nonstop until the weakened and collapsed. Arrow loops are narrow openings, wide enough just so archers can fire arrows.
The castle had so much protection and weapons it’s really hard to name them all. One more would be heavy walls that were at least 10 feet thick.
