How do native Americans use the deer to make weapons?
Deer were not used to make weapons, but parts of weapons. Deer legs and spines have long strips of elastic material called sinew (effectively long, thin tendon fibres) which help the deer run very fast. Sinew can be taken from a deer carcass, the outer casing removed and the sinew pounded into separate fibres - these are both very strong and stretch when water is applied, shrinking tightly on drying.Bowstrings were made from sinew, the fibres twisted together and corded; such a string works very well so long as it is kept dry. Sinew can be used wet to tie on arrowheads and feathers to arrows - as it dries, it shrinks making a very strong binding.The Plains tribes also glued deer sinew to the outer side of very short wooden or horn bows. These bows were so short that in normal circumstances they would soon break, but the application of sinew not only prevented breakage but also considerably increased the power of the bow. The horn used in some bows came from mountain sheep, not deer (which have antlers).
