Whittaker-Annotated Atlbib July 31 2014 1 Annotated Atlatl Bibliography John Whittaker Grinnell College version of August 2, 2014 Introduction I began accumulating this bibliography around 1996, making notes for my own uses. Since I have access to some obscure articles, I thought it might be useful to put this information where others can get at it. Comments in brackets [ ] are my own comments, opinions, and critiques, and not everyone will agree with them. I try in particular to note problems in some of the studies that are often cited by others with less atlatl knowledge, and correct some of the misinformation. The thoroughness of the annotation varies depending on when I read the piece and what my interests were at the time. The many articles from atlatl newsletters describing contests and scores are not included. I try to find news media mentions of atlatls, but many have little useful info. There are a few peripheral items, relating to topics like the dating of the introduction of the bow, archery, primitive hunting, projectile points, and skeletal anatomy. Through the kindness of Lorenz Bruchert and Bill Tate, in 2008 I inherited the articles accumulated for Bruchert’s extensive atlatl bibliography (Bruchert 2000), and have been incorporating those I did not have in mine. Many previously hard to get articles are now available on the web - see for instance postings on the Atlatl Forum at the Paleoplanet webpage http://paleoplanet69529.yuku.com/forums/26/t/WAA-Links-References.html and on the World Atlatl Association pages at http://www.worldatlatl.org/ If I know about it, I will sometimes indicate such an electronic source as well as the original citation, but at heart I am an old-fashioned paper-lover. The articles use a variety of measurements. Some useful conversions: 1”=2.54 cm 1’=30.48 cm 1 yard = .9144 m 1 cm = .394” 1 m = 3.28 feet (3’ 3 1/3”) 1 mile = 1.609 km 1 km = .622 miles 1 hectare = 100x100m = 10,000 sq m = 2.47 acres 1 acre = 4840 square yds = 4046.9 sq m = .40469 hectares 1 m/sec = 2.236936 mph = 3.28084 ft/sec (Rule of Thumb: 1 mps = 3.3 fps = 2.2 mph) 1 km/hr = .2778 m/sec = .622 mph 1 mph = 1.609 km/hr = 1.466 fps = .44704 m/sec 1 ft/sec = .6818 mph = .3048 m/sec 1 oz = 28.3495 gm or 437.5 grains 1 grain = .0648 gm or .0023 oz 1 gram = 15.43 grains or .035274 oz 1 kg = 2.203 lbs, 35.274 oz 1 lb = .4535924 kg, 454 gm, 7000 grains 2 1 ton = 2000 lbs = 907.185 kg, or .907 metric ton, 907 kg 1 metric ton, 1000 kg = 2205 lbs 9/5 x degrees C + 32 = degrees F degrees F - 32 x 5/9 = degrees C Kinetic energy: ½ mass X velocity squared.

Flint bifaces dressed as gods - Ehecatl-Quetzalcoatl, Xochipilli, Techalotl, and generalized warriors. The last identified by assoc weapons: miniature atlatl with cross-peg grip, side-notched proj points, bow. [The first two are shown, but not clear where they come from. Image from codex shows side-notched pts on atlatl darts, but specimens look small, no scale given. Ehecatl-Q also shown with shield and curved sceptre and miniature sceptre in stone - this actually may be symbolic atlatl.] Ahler, Stanley A. and Phil R. Geib 3 2002 Why Flute? Folsom Point Design and Adaptation. Journal of Archaeological Science 27:799-820. Folsom fluting produces a very thin point that can be hafted in a split haft with only leading edge and tip exposed, allowing maximum penetration but controlling breakage so that only the tip breaks off and the point can be resharpened and reused many times. Probably an adaptation to mobile bison hunting where a reliable, maintainable weapon is needed, but where suitable material is not always available. [Assumes used with atlatl. Summarizes previous ideas on fluting, proposes a convincing hafting model.] Akerman, Kim x 1978 Notes on the Kimberley Stone-tipped Spear Focusing on the Point Hafting Mechanism. Mankind 2(4):486-489. On light spears 170 gm ave, 150-200 cm long, reed or bamboo with hardwood foreshaft, point attached by resin and sinew. Currently opalescent pyrex ovenware glass preferred for points at Kalumburu, bought for purpose, given to skilled craftsman, fractured with hot wire. Metal leaf points also made. Points often small, 1.5-2.0 cm long. Foreshaft notched but not split, lashed to prevent splitting, butt of point left thick. Resin molded around base of point and down shaft for strength. Impact fractures when hit hard object, shattering if miss in rocky country. Resharpening. Resin hafting advantages: allows point to come free rather than breaking as shaft vibrates in target, curved points can be aligned with shaft, neat join for better penetration, very small points can be used. Large ostentatious pts more for gift exchange than use. Now made for tourist trade. Akerman, Kim o 2006 High-Tech, Low-Tech: Lithic Technology in the Kimberley Region of Western Australia. In Skilled Production and Social Reproduction. Jan Apel and Kjel Knutsson eds., pp. 323-346. Societas Archaeologica Upsaliensis, Uppsala. Ground-edge tools like axes, grinding equipment, unhafted flake blade and core cutting tools, hafted knives and scrapers, pressure flaked spearheads in 3 different lithic zones.

Glass favored, takes 15 + minutes. Composite spears 250-350 cm, ave wt 170 grams, so could be thrown with long spear thrower up to 140 yards, accurate to 80. Solid wood spears thrown with shorter desert style thrower often with adze on handle. Akerman, Kim 2010 To Make a Point – Ethnographic Reality and the Ethnographic and Experimental Replication of Australian Macroblades Known as Leilira. In Experiments and Interpretation of Traditional Technologies: Essays in Honor of Errett Callahan. Edited 4 by Hugo Nami, pp. 407-430. Editiones de Arqueologia Contemporanea, Buenos Aires. Large flake blades, usually quartzite or silcrete, up to 240 mm, hafted in knob of resin as knives for men or women, or as spear tips. “technological observation in the recent ethnographic present may not always reveal the true nature of technological understanding and ability that existed in the traditional ethnographic past.” Quotes several detailed accounts of knapping. Many pieces rejected by knapper before successful blade, but at quarry, others might collect and use his rejects. Hard hammer percussion with large core resting on ground. Current knappers not as skillful – 1960s to 1980s selling blades hafted as knives or spears, but mostly using recovered quarry rejects. Blades for spearpoints have base thinned, hafted with beeswax. Those used in knives are not thinned, and a wooden “finial” may be added to the haft and decorated with totemic marks, but is non-functional. Some recent accounts of traditional knapping are flawed because the knappers observed remembered poorly or had never been very skilled. “some indigenous peoples try to discover for themselves how ‘the old people did it’. I have heard indigenous people describe how Kimberley points were made, by heating a flake of stone and carefully dripping water onto it.” Describes his replication, compares to Levallois technique.

  • Rules and Options
    Rules and Options The author has attempted to draw as much as possible from the guidelines provided in the 5th edition Players Handbooks and Dungeon Master's Guide. Statistics for weapons listed in the Dungeon Master's Guide were used to develop the damage scales used in this book. Interestingly, these scales correspond fairly well with the values listed in the d20 Modern books. Game masters should feel free to modify any of the statistics or optional rules in this book as necessary. It is important to remember that Dungeons and Dragons abstracts combat to a degree, and does so more than many other game systems, in the name of playability. For this reason, the subtle differences that exist between many firearms will often drop below what might be called a "horizon of granularity." In D&D, for example, two pistols that real world shooters could spend hours discussing, debating how a few extra ounces of weight or different barrel lengths might affect accuracy, or how different kinds of ammunition (soft-nosed, armor-piercing, etc.) might affect damage, may be, in game terms, almost identical. This is neither good nor bad; it is just the way Dungeons and Dragons handles such things. Who can use firearms? Firearms are assumed to be martial ranged weapons. Characters from worlds where firearms are common and who can use martial ranged weapons will be proficient in them. Anyone else will have to train to gain proficiency— the specifics are left to individual game masters. Optionally, the game master may also allow characters with individual weapon proficiencies to trade one proficiency for an equivalent one at the time of character creation (e.g., monks can trade shortswords for one specific martial melee weapon like a war scythe, rogues can trade hand crossbows for one kind of firearm like a Glock 17 pistol, etc.).
