A short cannon is often referred to as a "culverin." Culverins were popular in the 16th and 17th centuries and were characterized by their long barrels and relatively lightweight design, making them easier to maneuver. Another term used for a shorter type of cannon is "howitzer," which is designed to fire shells at high angles.
