Hacker News上的一篇帖子讨论了文章“贵尔夫-吉贝林战争中失落的塔楼”。一位用户质疑塔楼描绘高度的历史准确性,认为可能是艺术加工的结果。另一位用户思考为什么选择塔楼而不是更矮、更易防守的建筑,推测高度可能是一种身份象征,类似于现代摩天大楼。第三位用户认为塔楼的高度可能超过了梯子的可及范围,并提到塔楼堡垒在爱尔兰等其他地区是一种常见的防御建筑。最后,有人指出了其与也门的塔楼房屋在视觉上的相似之处。总的来说,讨论集中在塔楼建造背后的实用性和象征意义。

    Is there any historical data to support the height of the towers in the first image? It looks like at least some of that is leaning on an artistic license.


    >Wealthy families built these as mini-fortresses within the city, where they could defend against riots, enemy families

    They needed some mini-fortresses, but why build them in the form of a tower? They could have built a secure, easy to defend structure less tall.

    Maybe they've built them for showing off, the taller the building, the higher the prestige? At least, that is the reason we have skyscrapers.



    Gotta be taller than the tallest ladder would be my guess. Tower forts are common. You can find them in places like Ireland also.
