The early cannon were a metal tube, closed on one end except for a very small hole. Gunpowder was loaded in the tube through the large open end, and projectiles loaded on top of the gunpowder. They could be rocks, arrows, or cannon balls. A red hot wire would be shoved into the small hole, igniting the gunpowder. It exploded, producing rapidly expanding gasses, which shot the projectiles out of the cannon.
