Robert the Bruce kills Sir Henry de Bohun, Battle of Bannockburn, Scotland, 1314 (1864). Sir Henry de Bohun (d1314), an English knight, spotted the Scottish king on the battlefield. After fixing his lance, Bohun charged the Bruce (1274-1329), who evaded his lance at the last second and killed Bohun with a blow from his axe, splitting his head in two. The victory for the Scots at Bannockburn was the decisive moment in the First War of Scottish Independence.
