See screenshots below. Here's what happened:
I selected a Mangonel as a unit for battle. I set up, and then start the battle. I turn my camera to view the field, watch for a while, then move down to the unit icons to select the mangonel to fire on approaching enemy. The mangonel icon is gone. I figure maybe I accidentally replaced it with a different unit, so I pan the camera back to see what's there instead. I don't recall the Nubian Spearmen being one of my unit choices, and notice they're in a strange formation, seemingly formed around the space the mangonel oocupied. When I place my cursor over the empty space, the "Mangonel" word appears, but clicking on the space does nothing; apparently the mangonel "footprint" is still on the battlefield, but it has been replaced my the spearman unit (which I had as one of my reserves.)

Looks like you accidently cycled it out during deployment.
There is a bug with the artillery footprint being left behind though.
