Military organization and siege warfare -- part II. Corpus Obsidionum (catalog of sieges).Siege Warfare and Military Organization in the Successor States is the first study to comprehensively treat an aspect of Byzantine, Western, early Islamic, Slavic and Steppe military history within the framework of common descent from Roman military organization to 800 AD. This not only encompassed the army proper, but also a greater complex of client management, private military retinues, labor obligations and civilian conscription in urban defense that were systematically developed by the Romans around 400, and survived to be adopted and adapted by all successors. The result was a common post-Roman military culture suitable for more restrained economic circumstances but still able to maintain, defend and attack city walls with skills rivalling those of their Roman forebears.History of warfare ;v. 91.Siege warfareHistoryTo 1500SiegesHistoryTo 1500Military art and scienceHistoryMedieval, 500-1500Byzantine EmpireHistory, MilitaryIslamic EmpireHistory, MilitaryEuropeHistory, MilitaryTo 1500Siege warfareHistorySiegesHistoryMilitary art and scienceHistory355.4/4095609021Petersen Leif Inge Ree1667268MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816800203321Siege warfare and military organization in the successor states (400-800 AD)4027002UNINA
