The bow strings I buy always fall apart after around five thousand years.

“7,000-year-old”

By definition, the craftsman who manufactured this weaponry can’t pre-date Adam and Eve.

So there’s that.

For what it’s worth.

And stuff.

Man has always been very crafty since his creation. These discoveries are only “surprising” because they expose the fantasy of their evolution theories.

Very fascinating. Thanks, Red.

With that degree of technical sophistication, there must have been dedicated teams of people collecting the materials, the pitch, the reeds, the sinews from the animals. Think of all the knowledge that was collected over vast periods of time and passed down orally. How did innovation occur? There must of have been lots of experimentation. The bow and arrow masters must have worked closely with the hunters and soldiers to improve the weapons (the original MIC).

There had to have been lots of organizational skill, too, with a lot of labor specialization.

How did the teams that made the bows and arrows get paid? Pure barter, I would imagine.

If you weren’t good with your weapons, you didn’t eat.

If they ever dig up a 7,000 year old thing like this, then I'll be impressed. OOP
