In its early form, at least, a battering ram was a log manned by several people, that was hurled against the doors of enemy fortifications to break them down. After which there would be hand to hand fighting.

Also, chariots, like modern tanks, typically had several men. One or more drivers, plus soldiers to wield the actual weapons such as spears or swords.
