Using Moments of Inertia to Determine the Positions of Atlatl Weights on a Throwing Board (1999)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ellery Frahm.

J. Whittaker: Unpublished class paper, Anthropology Dept, Grinnell College. Moment of inertia is the tendency of an object to maintain its path of rotation and increases with the mass of the object and the distance from the axis of rotation. Thus a weight on a swinging atlatl stabilizes its motion and should increase accuracy. The greater the weight and the further from the handle, the more the effect, but the force necessary to swing the atlatl also increases. Using 5 prehistoric atlatls...

The Weighted Atlatl and Dart: A Deceptively Complicated Mechanical System (1992)

DOCUMENT Citation Only William R Perkins.

J. Whittaker: Began experiments as engineering student 1984, presented this paper Montana Arch Soc 1989, Perkins and Leininger 1989. Atlatl is to propel light flexible dart, not heavy spear, tip of atlatl moves faster than hand, so dart faster than hand-thrown spear. Force is applied at end and dart flexes, similar to arrow. Flex of dart is essential to spring spear off hook before atlatl decelerates and swings down, or would just slip off hook [which in effect is what happens.] Dart flex...

Weights of Chipped Stone Points: A Clue to Their Functions (1953)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Franklin Fenenga.

J. Whittaker: Weighed 884 points from 16 sites in CA plus 1 NV Anasazi, 1 NB 18th C Apache, 1 ND protohistoric, 1 SD protohistoric, 1 MO Archaic, 1 MO Hopewell. Finds bimodality: less than 3.49 gm, and more than 4.5 gm (only 33 = 3.7% fall between). Suggests small point tradition reflects bow and arrow, late sites, while large point tradition is atlatl, earlier sites. Notes contradictory evidence: Browne 1938 and his own experiments with atlatl show small points, no points, large points all...
