Iron four-pound cannon replicas were made from measurements of cannons recovered in 1852 by Samuel Maverick near the northwest corner of the Alamo. Archival research indicates these cannons were at the site but not used during the Battle of the Alamo, likely because suitable carriages were lacking. They now sit in their approximate 1836 location as recorded by the Mexican Army.
