History

In its simplest form, a Battering Ram is just a large, heavy log carried by several people and propelled with force against an obstacle; the momentum of the Ram would be sufficient to damage the target if the log were massive enough and/or it were moved quickly enough. In castles, defenders attempted to foil Battering Rams by dropping obstacles in front of the Ram, such as a large sack of sawdust, just before it hit a wall, by using grappling hooks to immobilize the log, by setting the Ram on fire, or by sallying to attack the Ram directly.
