- Lot Description
Native American, North America, Southwest, Pueblo, ca. 1820 to 1850 CE. An outstanding Pueblo deer hide bow case and quiver with four matching wooden, flint-tipped arrows. A magnificent ensemble, the bow and arrows in their original bow case and quiver, respectively, possibly a complete set. Every element of this ensemble was skillfully hand-made; for instance, one can appreciate the fine curves of the bow, the quill wrappings of the arrows, as well as the knapping of the flint tips. Furthermore, the deer hide bow case and quiver retain ample traces of blue, red, and white pigmentation. Note also that a thick hide strap is hand-sewn to the bow case. Both also present attractive fringes adorning their ends. Size: arrows measure ~ 24.5" L (62.2 cm); bow measures 43.25" L (109.9 cm); bow case measures 42" L (106.7 cm); quiver measures 26" L (66 cm)
Native American peoples used handmade bows and arrows for both hunting and warfare. Bows and arrows were coveted as important weapons and tools, and learning how to use them was paramount. In fact, young boys were traditionally gifted with 'toy' bows and arrows at an early age in order to foster and develop their skills, so that they would become skilled archers.
Provenance: private Minnesota, USA collection; ex F. Don Nidiffer, "Spirits of Nature" Charlottesville, Virginia, USA
