The width and heat-bent shape echo other West Coast bows. It is beautifully designed and crafted, that's for sure! Thanks for sharing, Kathi.

Quite the find. Would be great if the do a 3D scan of it so it can be replicated to bring traditional bows and culture back to life.

There’s more technology in a modern compound bow than an old bolt action rifle.

What's traditional hunting??

Rocks, sticks??

Firearms have been used for hundreds of years.

Boomie, I agree. I'd love to have a duplicate of that bow strung with dogbane or milkweed cordage and shoot obsidian-tipped arrows of red osier dogwood with it.
Nothing quite like "experimental archaeology."
Cool
