Image Missing: Hearst Museum object titled Arrow, accession number 10-1341, described as Wooden arrow; metal point tied by 4 strand cord to shaft; short length for play; fancy woven fibre haft; 2 black & 1 brown feather; toggle missing; 38 1/2” long; a deer arrow. Deer arrows are provided with a cruelly barbed, detachable iron point. When an animal is struck the point leaves the shaft, unwinding a long woven coil with which the two are fastened together. The barbs prevent the point from tearing out of the flesh and the dangling shaft catches on the under brush and serve to retard the animal’s flight. See Wm.A. Reed, Negritos of Zambales, p. 46 & Pl. XLII, figs 8,9.
