This seems to be a obisier early century. There is no indication of its source.
A howitzer is a type of artillery piece characterized by a relatively short barrel and the use of comparatively small propellant charges to propel projectiles at relatively high trajectories, with a steep angle of descent. Until fairly recently (about the end of the Second World War) such weapons were characterized by a barrel length 15 to 25 times the caliber of the gun
Ceci semble être un obisier du début du siècle. Rien n'indique sa provenance.
