minus-squareAlteon@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·16 days agoApproximately 500,000 years ago, when someone made a tiny spear. They just didn’t know it was an arrow at the time. I mean what is an arrow, but a much smaller spear?
minus-squareMajinBlayze@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-216 days agoThere were those little flinger things that they’d put little spears on. Those might be considered proto arrows. Yeah, atlatls had fletched arrows
