The arquebus was an early type of firearm that played a significant role in West Africa during the late 15th to 17th centuries. Introduced by European traders and colonial powers, it facilitated the rise of gunpowder warfare in the region, altering traditional military practices. Local kingdoms and societies adopted the arquebus for both defense and expansion, significantly impacting the balance of power and facilitating the transatlantic slave trade. Its use marked a pivotal shift in warfare and influence in West African history.
