Hi Everybody,
I watched the History Channel episode about the Aztecs that featured David Carasco and
others. It was an interesting show and one of the subjects covered touched on a point
Justin Kerr made about the bow and arrow discussion. There was an Ancient Mesoamerican
weapons specialist in part of the show. He demonstrated some of the weapons used by
the Aztecs and others. The spears thrown by the atlatl looked more like large arrows in
my opinion. Like Justin and others pointed out, this may have led the Europeans to
describe them as such.
