Vandoo, it looks like I can't email you via the forum as I'm new and don't have sufficient user priviledges yet
 But thanks for the photos and information regarding the use of friable plant materials on arrowheads. Do you have references for this? Please let me know if you do, it may go some way towards explaining the conspicuous moss-like fibres...

Maria, I recall the article you're looking for "Arrows of Melanesia" by David Skinner, and actually am surprised, it doesn;t seem that long ago
I recall it was an incredible article, virtually a book within a magnificently published magazine, I used to subscribe to it it seems lifetimes ago. Online you can find "Tribal Arts" magazine and you can order back issues, I checked and it is available, Summer 2000, #23 @25.00 and apparantly in stock. Out of all the issues I had, that one impressed me the most for the incredible detail and volume, and I honestly never realized arrows were this long! I would gladly help with my copy but as I am on the road wont be able to access for some time. Hope this info will help. All best regards, Jim |
