Note: Cylindrical cases containing a charge of powder and a bullet or quantity of shot for a single shot from a firearm, first appearing in the late 16th century. Early types had cases of paper, pasteboard, or linen which were ignited externally, while more recent ones have metal or plastic cases holding their own means of ignition, such as a percussion cap, at one end.
