Best Answer

There were many types of grenades throughout modern warfare history such as stick grenades, impact, timed, stun etc. The first type grenade goes back over 1000 years in China, it was a simple container, with a fuse, which was filled with gun powder. This would be one of the first prototype to the modern day grenade.
