The invention that made catapults obsolete was gunpowder artillery, particularly cannons. By the late Middle Ages, cannons provided a more powerful and accurate means of siege warfare, allowing armies to breach fortifications from a greater distance. The increased range and destructive capability of gunpowder weaponry rendered traditional siege engines like catapults less effective and eventually led to their decline in military use.
