Объяснение
The narrow outer opening widened inward, so an archer had room to move and aim while presenting almost nothing for a shot from outside to strike. Treating them as windows fails because light was not worth the loss of protection on a fighting wall, and openings meant for dropping things on an enemy were set in the ceiling above a passage, not in the face of a wall.
