One type of Medieval tower for attacking fortifications was a turret. A turret featured lower areas for soldiers to stand and fire arrows, or throw stones. A turret was also called a rook, because of its high location on a castle.

What is a fortification?

Fortification is a defensive structure, like a castle or fort. It may have extra high and thick walls to keep out the enemy. It may also have weapons built in to these walls as well. The Alamo is a good example of a fortification, so are the castles built back in the times of medieval knights.
