"To the bewilderment of many researchers, the Paleo-Eskimos discarded the technologically advanced bows and arrows they brought from Asia, preferring instead to hunt with larger and heavier lances that required closer contact with dangerous game."
A heavy lance can be much better for stopping large or dangerous game, where much penetration, especially through bone, is very important. It could also be used by concealed hunters with ruminants driven to them by friends.
