The memorial, which forms part of the Delville Wood Memorial, is located in the Company's Garden, Cape Town, and was strategically established to commemorate South Africa's artillery soldiers who fell in battle. Of those who volunteered to fight during the war, 5800 were white South African, amongst whom 15% were Dutch and 85% English. An estimated 2536 of these men were killed in the Deville Wood battle in Europe. The Artillery Memorial, an authentic cannon facing east towards the National Gallery, proudly honors South Africa's heavy artillerymen. Inscribed on it are the names of the officers, N.C.O.'s and men of the South African artillery who fell in the Great War (1914-1918).〔City of Cape Town Department of Arts and Culture〕 The memorial is classified as a public monument and as such is subject to protection in terms of heritage legislation legislation administered by Heritage Western Cape the provincial heritage resources authority of the Western Cape Province.〔Section 37, National Heritage Resources Act, Act 25 of 1999, Government Notice 502, South African Government Gazette, vol 406, No. 19974 of 28 April 1999〕 ==Background== Artillery originally refers to any weapon used by infantry releasing greater amounts of ammunition through a projectile head. The broad term originally included all weapons with projectiles except for personal weapons. The South Africa Artillery Memorial is largely dedicated to those field artillery soldiers who were first introduced to the use of the then modern weapons for battle. The first consignment of these weapons were imported from Britain, though the number was not sufficient enough to supply all the front-line combat soldiers. According to Major D.D. Hall, artillery was only introduced in South Africa after 1880, before the Anglo Boer War. "No artillery was used at the Bronkhorstspruit battle on 20 December 1880 but the artillery of both adversaries did play a role in most of the actions..." (Major Hall,D.D., 1980). Artillery referred to those metal weapons or guns which had been imported from Britain before the Zulu wars.The engines comprise specialized devices which use stored energy to operate mechanically, chemically or electromagnetically.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://samilitaryhistory.org/vol052dh.html )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Artillery Memorial, Cape Town」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
