Dutch (and general) cannon info

[Javelin]

Recently, during a trip, a stumbled over 2 bronze guns made by Burgerhuys in the Netherlands around 1670's. 

That made me look around for more info on those and I found a rather interesting file about Dutch guns and in fact guns/cannons in general. 

It's written in both Dutch and English and contains lots of pictures and drawings of preserved or discovered Dutch guns around the world. 

 

The file can be found online, but I has trouble linking it. It's from Cultureel Erfgoed, which means  Cultural Heritage from the Netherlands. 

 

I've just started reading a couple of days back. Interesting read so far, clarifies also a lot of terms used in cannon/gun subjects.

 

Edit: figured it out. Here is the link as well.
