The earliest known purpose-built weapons in human history date to the Bronze Age. Maces, which were little more than rocks mounted on sticks, had questionable value as hunting tools, but they were superbly suited for smashing the bones and skulls of other humans. Later in the Bronze Age, the sword made its first appearance. Since that time, weapons...
The 19th century saw a revolution in firearms technology. Machine tools allowed for greater precision in gunsmithing.

In order to be quickly rammed from muzzle to breech, musket ammunition had to fit loosely in the barrel. When discharged...
Early submarines were far more lethal to their own crews than they were to their intended targets. The Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley sank repeatedly before its successful spar torpedoing the Union sloop Housatonic. Even this “success” must be qualified, however, as the attack resulted in the Hunley’s sinking (again) with the loss of all hands. ...
In the history of armed conflict, disease has often claimed more lives than combat. Intentionally introducing infectious agents to the battlefield is a dubious strategy at best, however, as biological weapons tend to be even more capricious than chemical weapons. Viruses and bacteria do not discriminate on the basis of uniform, insignia, or allegia...
