The duchy of Burgundy, long a competitor with France, was an early pioneer in such ordnance, creating short-barreled bombards mounted and rotated on a special elevation chassis. The convenience of lighter ordnance was a factor in its continued use, as was its versatility. The bombard was a short-barreled cannon of the mid-14th century. Longer barrels continued to develop, but short barrels persisted. The alloy bronze was more expensive but it could be cast as a single item, like a bell, and thus it became the material of choice for ordnance pieces. With spherically chiseled stone for shot, the cannons were prone to bursting under explosive pressure. The iron was banded and welded by parts and thus was potentially weak. Early wrought-iron cannons from the late 13th century were relatively short-barreled and unreliable. These weapons were distinctly short-barreled and featured high-trajectory firing to hurl a load of small stones over enemy walls. The earliest known forerunner to the mortar, introduced by Spanish Muslims about ad 1250, was essentially an iron-reinforced bucket that hurled stones with gunpowder.
