Re: Oldest evidence of arrows found
Very cool - 60 000 years ago Traditional Archery quite possibly reflected the state of the art in technology just as it does now - every thing old is new again! What an endlessly fascinating story is being gradually uncovered of how an Arms Race has played a part throughout the ages in relation to the development of the modern mind.
