History[]
First used by the Majapahit Empire, the cetbang, derived from the Chinese word chongtong, is a piece of light artillery which are found in two types: Eastern-style and Western-style. Eastern-style cetbangs are loaded from the front, typically fire arrow-shaped projectiles, sometimes tipped with explosive or incendiary, and are usually found in fixed mounts on ships or emplacements. On the other hand, Western-style cetbangs are loaded from the breech, fires round projectiles including "case" shots, and are light enough to be man-portable or mounted on swivels or carriages.
