Point Typologies, Cultural Transmission, and the Spread of Bow-and-Arrow Technology in the Prehistoric Great Basin (1999)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Robert L Bettinger. Jelmer Eerkens.

J. Whittaker: Great Basin transition to small points (= bow and arrow) ca. 1350 B.P. Two areas anomalous: 1) central NV lots light pts that should be darts - probably because of resharpening limited material. 2) E. CA light pts with base/neck too wide for arrow. Suggests different modes of transmission: 1 = "indirect bias" copy whole complex at once, vs 2 = "guided variation" more individualistic copying with experimentation, perhaps because of less contact between cultures.

Prehistoric Archery - Some Considerations (1999)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Alf Webb. Doug Gentles.

J. Whittaker: Mesolithic bows of two types: stick bow, bends in complete arc, breaks at grip; handle reinforced bow, bends in restricted arc, breaks at end of limbs. Both found archaeologically in Mesolithic. Tend to have archaeological finds of heavy bows from wet lowlands sites, light arrows from upland sites – they should not go together.

Prehistoric Hunters of the High Plains (1978)

DOCUMENT Citation Only George C Frison.

J. Whittaker: Detailed summaries of many sites, especially kill sites, including Paleoindian. Colby, Hanson, Agate Basin, Casper, Horner, Finley sites. Cultural chronology and projectile points. Photos Late Archaic (200-500 AD) atlatl and foreshafts from Spring Creek Cave. Comments on hunting and butchery with stone tools and bone expedient tools. Lots of experiments with stone points and foreshafts, but mostly with thrusting spears. [Atlatl experiments mentioned in passing, and he seems to feel...

Prehistoric Hunters of the High Plains (1991)

DOCUMENT Citation Only George C Frison.

J. Whittaker: Some of same material as 1978, but different book. Includes more info on atlatls and weapons, stone tool chapter by Bruce Bradley. [Quality of production is disgraceful - line drawings and text slightly murky, photos look like something printed in 1950s India.]

Projectile point shape and durability: the effect of thickness:length (2006)

DOCUMENT Citation Only J Cheshier. R L Kelly.

Projectile Points (1940)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jim Browne.

J. Whittaker: Size of points is not a good marker for dating "pre-bow" - Pt 87 mm long, 37 wide on arrow still shoots many "too large" pts actually ok for bow and arrow. Experiments with self bow and Basketmaker type atlatl: "Any close degree of accuracy is impossible with atlatl and spear." (uses overhead sweep, full extension) 6 mo practice "can't hit buffalo 1 out of 10 at 30 yards." Bow much more accurate. Dart greater penetration than arrow with same pt. Maximum atlatl throw 81...

The Reconstruction of Scythian Bows (2007)

J. Whittaker: Composite bow info [poorly written] on manufacture and tests. Penetration studies using different points against Roman scutum shield (plywood construction with leather) and Persian shield (cane with leather): long oval points best, would break structure of shield after a few hits and cause wounds, bodkins next, 3-bladed did not penetrate well.
