Tater Salad...hum...well he was born and raised 14 miles from me...Mr. Ron 'Tater salad " White
But I feel He is referring to an Arquebus .....meaning "hook gun"or "hook tube".... is an early muzzle-loaded firearm used in the 15th to 17th centuries.....also known as a hand cannon.... it has a matchlock..... Like its successor the musket.... it is a smoothbore firearm..... It is a forerunner of the rifle and other longarm firearms.

I believe he's referring to the Tatars, which is an alternate spelling for the ancestors of the Mongol nation, an ethnic group in present day Russia. I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think the arquebus was in existance in the 12th century.

Readfox,
Did you put the picture and article in your first message here? If so, I do not see them. I only see words that I do not understand.
