    UC Berkeley Berkeley Undergraduate Journal of Classics Title Bow Designs on Ancient Greek Vases Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3rh4f9jd Journal Berkeley Undergraduate Journal of Classics, 5(2) ISSN 2373-7115 Author Bowyer, Emily S Publication Date 2017 Peer reviewed|Undergraduate eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Bow Designs on Ancient Greek Vases Emily Bowyer University of California, Los Angeles Classical Civilizations Class of 2017 Abstract: This research looks to investigate the designs of ancient bows depicted on ancient Greek pottery. The goal is to show that the bows most commonly shown are not native to the Greek mainland but rather are from Scythia and Egypt. This has been done by examining a number of vases, pyramid friezes, and modern bow reconstructions. The common use of the Scythian design for archer characters in scenes of myth implies a familiarity with archery primarily through the Scythian mercenaries. The Egyptian acacia deflex bow design, while rare in vase depictions, directly corresponds to images on pyramids. The Egyptian angular composite bow appears in a rare case on a Greek vase, but its depiction is consistent with modern historical reconstructions. Through showing these non-native bow origins, this paper hopes to further demonstrate the worldly influences on archaic Greece. The practice of archery is ancient, as is its depiction in art. Analysis of the bow’s form provides a unique insight into the ancient world. This is because a culture’s bow design is a direct reflection of its environment. From the single-piece English Yew longbow to the massive Japanese Yumi to the compact Mongolian horse bow, the available materials dictate the form of the tool.

  • Blazer Vanes How to Remove Arrow Wraps Cleaning Arrow Shafts
    Here are the answers to the most commonly-asked questions about Bohning Archery products, including information about fletching arrows, fletching Blazer vanes, the Bohning Blazer jig, arrow wraps, quiver topics, and more. If you have a question that isn't answered here, please contact us for assistance. Blazer Vanes Do Blazer vanes work with broadheads? Blazer vanes are designed to be used with fixed and mechanical broadheads. They also work very well with field points and can be used for target shooting. How should Blazer vanes be fletched? Blazer vanes should be fletched in the same location as any other vane. We recommend a three-degree right helical, using our Blazer Helix Jig or Helix Tower Fletching Jig ™; or a two-degree offset, using our Pro-Class Fletching Jig. How to Remove Arrow Wraps What are the best ways to remove ArroWraps brand arrow wraps from a shaft? There are different options for removing ArroWraps: • Soak the ArroWrap in hot tap water for 5 minutes, and then peel it off. • Heat the ArroWrap with a hair dryer and then peel it off. • Scrape the ArroWrap off the shaft using Bohning's Stripper tool. Always clean the shaft well after removing an ArroWrap. How can vanes or feathers be replaced without damaging a shaft that has an ArroWrap brand arrow wrap or crest? Unfortunately, vanes or feathers cannot easily be replaced without damaging the crest. Cleaning Arrow Shafts What is the best method for cleaning arrow shafts? Clean arrow shafts by scrubbing with an abrasive pad (such as Scotch Brite®), using water and a good degreasing soap, such as Bohning SSR Arrow Shaft Surface Cleaner.

Traditional Japanese archery is called Kyudo, literally The Way of the Bow, and is regarded in Japan as one of the purest of all the martial Ways.

    “An interesting and enlightening study by John Stevens.”—The Japan Times ABOUT THE BOOK Here are the inspirational life and teachings of Awa Kenzo (1880–1939), the Zen and kyudo (archery) master who gained worldwide renown after the publication of Eugen Herrigel’s cult classic Zen in the Art of Archery in 1953. Kenzo lived and taught at a pivotal time in Japan’s history, when martial arts were practiced primarily for self-cultivation, and his wise and penetrating instructions for practice (and life)—including aphorisms, poetry, instructional lists, and calligraphy—are infused with the spirit of Zen. Kenzo uses the metaphor of the bow and arrow to challenge the practitioner to look deeply into his or her own true nature. JOHN STEVENS is Professor of Buddhist Studies and Aikido instructor at Tohoku Fukushi University in Sendai, Japan. He is the author or translator of over twenty books on Buddhism, Zen, Aikido, and Asian culture.He has practiced and taught Aikido all over the world.

  • Grade Archery Study Guide
    8th GRADE ARCHERY STUDY GUIDE History Archery skill was of vital importance for thousands of years. It literally provided means of survival. It is generally agreed that man started using crude archery tackle some ten to twenty thousand years ago. Archery became a sport in America after a group of Philadelphia gentlemen founded the United Bowmen in 1828. The National Archery Association was founded in 1879. Archery became a gold medal sport in the 1972 Olympic Games. The recurve bow is used by Olympic Archers. An arrow shot by this bow travels at more than 150 mph.
