Terracotta sling shots
« on: November 13, 2021, 10:24:10 am »
I know they excist as I saw multiple people in the Netherlands find them on fields. I wonder if they are indeed slingshots or maybe something else. How often were these used in comparison to the lead counterpart?

Thanks  +++

Some of the best information I have seen on this subject is on the forum slinging.org ("stone age ballistics").  I kid you not, there is a forum dedicated to the sling.
