7 It is not known exactly when
gunpowder was invented. It is
known for a fact that rockets
and fireworks were m ade by the
Chinese long before gunpowder
was used in Europę, which
occurred at about the beginning
o f the thirteenth century. It
is generally believed that the
‘A ge of Chivalry was brought
to an end by gunpowder, sińce
a m ounted knight could be
brought down by anyone with
a firearm . In fact, efficient
firearm s were not developed
until the sixteenth century.
W hen it was first introduced,
gunpowder was used mainly
in siege cannon. Later it was
used in engineering work
and mining, but it was found
to be extrem ely dangerous.
Gunpowder has now been
replaced by m odern explosives,
but it is still used for making
fireworks, just as it was by the
Chinese.
