EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing engraving from the 19th century showcases a collection of strange weapons and even stranger methods of using them. The print, titled "Strange weapons and stranger methods of using them" captures the imagination with its depiction of various unconventional armaments. From the macoushie blowpipe used by indigenous tribes in the fens to a Swiss wolf trap, this image offers a glimpse into historical weaponry that is both fascinating and unusual. A Chinese duck hunter armed with a bow, an Australian arrow, and even a boomerang add to the diversity of these peculiar tools. The illustration also highlights different hunting techniques such as duck hunting in the Pyrenees or capturing pigeons with bolas or lasso. It seems no animal was safe from these inventive approaches, including tooth-billed pigeons and sea birds. Displayed within The Boys Own Annual publication in 1882, this engraving provides insight into ethnography and ancient practices across cultures. It serves as a reminder that throughout history, humans have devised innovative ways to defend themselves or procure food. With its rich detail and historical significance, this artwork invites us to ponder upon our ancestors' resourcefulness when it came to survival. As we observe these curious weapons amidst their natural surroundings – be it woodlands or farmlands – we are reminded of humanity's deep connection with nature and our constant quest for ingenuity.
