“A cave painting was found today, documenting the first paleolithic call to ban bows, and certain types of projectile heads, deemed ‘assault arrows’”

“Oetzi, who was carrying a bow, a quiver of arrows and a copper ax, may have been a hunter or warrior killed in a skirmish with a rival tribe.”

I thought primitive man lived peacefully and in harmony with nature. I can’t believe he would be killed by a rival tribe. Such senseless violence.

I also don’t know why he had weapons to go hunting. Weren’t the cavemen vegan in some ways?????

Another cave painting found in Switzerland, apparantly depicts the work of an early pioneer in ARROW design. It is not known whether the “curved” Arrow design ever got off the drawing board, or cave wall......

Was CSI able to extract any DNA evidence or fingerprints from the arrow remains? Do they have a suspect yet? Have the democrats started calling for stricter Bow and Arrow Control laws? All pressing questions that the article failed to address.

Do we know if his bow and arrow were properly registered and if he was subjected to sufficient background screening prior to his bow and arrow purchase?
