MEDIEVAL BATTLE

Hi! In our last class we were learning about the noble state and war as one of their usual activities. If you want to see a faithful recreation of a medieval battle, have a look at this video. It´s the battle of Stirling from the filmBraveheart.

After watching it, write to me telling what you have observed about dressings, feudal relationships, weapons, war strategies... and what has impressed you the most. Enjoy it!
