Native American Weapons:

Native American warriors used a variety of weapons, such as bows and arrows, war clubs, tomahawks and knives. The Native American bow was often used while on horseback and was therefore much shorter than the longbow used in Europe. It was claimed that an experienced warrior could fire twenty arrows in the time it took a settler to fire and reload a single-shot musket. The tomahawk was most often made with a stone head and was usually employed in close quarter fighting; however, sometimes it was thrown from horseback. Knives were employed in a similar fashion as tomahawks but were also used for scalping. To view the native american weapons that are available, click on the photos below:
