Atlatl weapon use by prehistoric females equalized the division of labor while hunting, experimental study shows
https://phys.org/news/2023-08-atlatl-weapon-prehistoric-females-equalized.htmlA new study led by archaeologist Michelle Bebber, Ph.D., an assistant professor in Kent State University's Department of Anthropology, has demonstrated that the atlatl (i.e., spear thrower) functions as an "equalizer," a finding which supports women's potential active role as prehistoric hunters.
