A lombard, also known as a lonbarda, wallbreaker, or quebrantamuro, was a smoothbore cannon used in the early Renaissance in Spain and Italy. This cannon was also used as an alarm to alert Christopher Columbus on the first of his voyages that land - what is now known as the Bahamas - had been sighted.
