Atlatl Anyone?

More from the hands-on historic reconstruction/reenactment files: The atlatl is a prehistoric hunting weapon, like throwing an arrow without a bow--I think. Students at Univ. of Kentucky have formed a club that practices with these things. People seem to like it. They performed at a fair where attendees could also practice flintknapping, hot-rock cooking, and other Stone Age fun.
