Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Looks at the evidence for prehistoric archery depicted in rock art. Although many Palaeolithic rock-art traditions did not include human figures in their repertoire, the use of archery is attested by depictions of wounds on animal subjects in the Dordogne and Lascaux regions of France. Bows are evinced in figurative paintings from the Mesolithic to Bronze Age in Spanish Levant and North Africa. Some paintings seem to show highly braced recurved bows. Further evidence is found in Southern Africa, North America and China. | |||||||||
