All caravels, from the reign of King Joao II (1481), carried cannon on deck, in place of the previous hand-held, light-caliber artillery. However, there were two, three and four-masted caravels, with a large variation in size, so the the number of cannon, in turn, would vary greatly. It is therefore inpossible to say: "A caravel carried X number of cannon," but it probably varied between two and eight.
