Morning Glory and Sunday Blessings Folks~

Interesting read. What an education on arrowhead wounds. Especially the graphic descriptions of pulsating aneurysms, tumors, incisions, hemorrhages, victims body fluids, splitting muscles, dilating wounds and evacuating chest wounds. Damn! I'm hungry . . . what's for lunch?

Your post, however, overlooked the Karankawas who continually attacked the Austin colonies along the Colorado river. They were known to launch nearly a hundred arrows within a matter of seconds. And the size of their arrows gave birth to the expression, "everything is bigger in Texas." Here we see a historical landmark where these arrows were left in the ground.

Oh my. Everything is bigger in Texas.

I'm just going to leave it at that.
