Former Scottish king John de Balliol dies in April at the Château Gaillard in Normandy, having been released from the Tower of London in July 1299 through papal intervention. Scotland's Robert I has received help from his only surviving brother, Edward, to defeat John Comyn, earl of Buchan (a cousin of the late John "the Red") and captures Perth from its English garrison (see 1307).

Communication
Wang Chen develops printing techniques and has over 60,000 Chinese characters made from hardwood at his disposal. Using these, he prints his Treatise of Agriculture. See also 1041 Communication; 1440 Communication.
ToolsThe first mention of a firearm in Western writing is of an "iron pot" or "vase," about which little else is known. The manufacturer may have been a German monk named Bernard Schwarz. Despite the name, it is thought that these early protocannon were mostly made from wooden or iron staves bound together with hoops, like a barrel. See also 1288 Tools; 1347 Tools.
