That was actually one of the reasons I learned. The rich families wanted to show how rich they were so they built towers. Then other rich families built their own, preferably bigger, to show that they had a bigger penis more money.
Are there any facts to back that up? I don’t know. I heard it ~25 years ago and I don’t remember the source. Though, I was in Bologna around that time so possibly from a tour or possibly from some drunk guy at a party.
Those are words I’ve never seen, thanks. I guess I can see that, imagine some smelly poor showing up on a nag in a burlap caparison then some medieval influencer on a Percheron with a purple silk caparison pulls up alongside? All the fair maidens faint right there!
My guess is it was about who has the longest one.

Or horse. I wonder what the 12th century equivalent of a modified tailpipe was?
Chanfrons and caparisons.

It’s not about height, it’s about girth. You need a properly wide base and taper in order to
pleasehouse so many soldiers.
