- Used from Medieval architecture onwards for over a millennia, in defensive wall fortifications.
- Sometimes merlons are narrowly pierced by vertical embrasure 'slits' to view and fire through. When the space is wider between two merlons it is called a crenel, and a series of many merlon—crenels creates crenallation.
