Battlement

Una battaglia in architettura difensiva, come quella delle mura cittadine o dei castelli, comprende un parapetto, in cui si verificano spazi o incavi rettangolari a intervalli per consentire lo scarico di frecce o di altri missili all'interno delle difese. Queste lacune sono definite "cretini", e l'atto di aggiungere crenelle a un parapetto in precedenza ininterrotto è chiamato crenellazione. Così un edificio difensivo potrebbe essere progettato e costruito con i merletti, o una casa padronale potrebbe essere fortificato aggiungendo i merletti, dove non esisteva precedentemente un parapetto, o tagliando i merlature nella sua parete parapet esistente. Le larghezze massime tra i crenelle sono chiamati merloni. Un muro con le battaglie è detto di essere crenellato o truffato. I battacchi sulle pareti hanno passaggi protetti dietro di loro. Sulle torri o nelle superfici di costruzione, il tetto viene utilizzato come piattaforma di combattimento protetta.

A battlement in defensive architecture, such as that of city walls or castles, comprises a parapet, in which rectangular gaps or indentations occur at intervals to allow for the discharge of arrows or other missiles from within the defences. These gaps are termed "crenels", and the act of adding crenels to a previously unbroken parapet is termed crenellation. Thus a defensive building might be designed and built with battlements, or a manor house might be fortified by adding battlements, where no parapet previously existed, or cutting crenellations into its existing parapet wall. The solid widths between the crenels are called merlons. A wall with battlements is said to be crenelated or embattled. Battlements on walls have protected walkways behind them. On tower or building tops, the roof is used as the protected fighting platform.

I think the Sixties in some ways is a barrier to young people today. They think of it, you know, what we're doing is not that. But it's partly the myth of the Sixties. It always felt embattled and small. It always, almost always, was a small group of people relative to the opposition around.
