Pre-modern Warfare:India And Elsewhere
Here are some interesting tidbits provided by local guides during a recent visit to the Halebeedu temple complex.
Does any of the gurus here know more about these on the veracity of the narration of the local guides?
The Hoysala halebeedu and Belur temple complex were built in 12th century and barbarians led by MaliKafur ransacked it in 14th century.

Please note what looks like a viewing device in the image at Halebeedu.
Local Guide’s narration: The optical device was in vogue and used in warfare at 12th century itself. (Telescopes come much later)
This is a 12th century temple. Hope the photograph shows with larger resolution.

This second link shows the same war scene depiction.
