The first major battle won by gunpowder, the battle of Cerignola, took place on 28 April 1503. Innovations introduced by General Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba, El Gran Capitán, allowed the Spanish armies to dominate battlefields across Europe for another almost 150 years. After the battle, the victorious General de Córdoba saw the battlefield littered by the fallen French. He ordered a call to prayer (toque de oracion), which was, in time, adopted by many Western armies. Three long tones were played and the Spanish troops prayed for all the fallen.
