« The stave of a toy bow was made with a crooked knife froma single piece of birchwood and lacks backing. Both the back and front are slightly convex and the sides are flat. Paired V-shaped notches at the sides are cut near the end of each horn for attachment of the bow string which is made of commercial two ply cord (fig. 31). Associated with this bow is a toy arrow, the shaft of which is circular in cross section and made of birchwood. The proximal end of the shaft is flattened on opposite sides and a notch is cut in the end at right angles to the flattened surfaces; there are no feathers. This type of arrow, which would have been used primarily for game birds such as ptarmigan and spruce grouse, had no attached point. The distal end of the shaft widens to form an enlarged striking surface (fig. 3m). In the past, the neighboring Mistassini Indians used the bow and arrow for hunting caribou as well as a variety of small game animals and birds (Rogers, 1967, p. 67). Small bows and arrows were used in a divination game for predicting the number of otters to be killed on a future hunt (Speck, 1930, pp. 429-430, fig. 109; 1935, p. 198). A label in Speck's handwriting attached to the bow indicates that it was collected at the Kiskisink settlement. » Vanstone, James W.

Arrow. Straight stemmed metal projectile point is a long triangle in shape, thin with sharpened edges. Stem is inserted into a slot in the shaft end that is tightened by wrapped sinew. Sinew attaches three long, striped feathers to the opposite end of the shaft, which is painted red.

Arrow. Small projectile point is made of stone, thin and finely carved with side and basil notches. Blue painted sinew attaches it to the arrow shaft, which is painted red. Past centre point and at end are a further two areas of blue sinew wrapping holding the remnants of red and white feathers. End comes to a blunt point.

Arrow. Metal projectile point is a long triangle in shape, thin with sharpened edges. It fits into a slot on the tip of the shaft that is tightened by a small amount of wrapped sinew. Sinew attaches three long, light brown feathers to the end of the shaft, which is painted red and has a notched tip.

Metal double-barbed point (part a) with rough metal shaft (part b), fitted and sinew-wrapped in socket of shaped wooden section. This is inserted into a reed section, sinew-wrapped and glued with pitch. Intermittent wrappings of sinew continue down length of shaft. The end of the reed is notched.
