The earliest arrows are said to be found in South Africa, almost 70,000 years ago, and appear in Eurasia 48,000 years ago. Many historians claim that arrows were originally given a symbolic significance by the Native Americans. Arrows played a significant role in the aesthetic sensibilities and cultural life of Native Americans. The arrow was not merely a tool for hunting, but was also venerated as a symbol of life because it protected the people from wild animals and the harsh natural world. Being the symbol of life, it probes us to move forward looking into the future, willing to take on new adventures and dreams.
