The disadvantage of a square keep was that it could be easily undermined.Their advantage was that the lord could see further than a circle keep.
You've got a fact wrong.Motte and bailey castles were made of stone later.Their disadvantage was that they were easily noticed.Their advantage was that they could see further.
The concentric's disadvantage was _________
.Its advantage was that it was stronger.Do the rest yourself.
Hope that helps-_-.
