ATLATL - http://terravideos.blogspot.com

Three alter-egos converge as (1.) Bob Perkins "the researcher", (2.) Professor William Robert Perkins "the mad scientist", and (3.) Atlatl Bob "the hunter," give a humorous and multi-faceted account of mankind's ascendant path to the top of the food chain. Though seemingly primitive, the "Atlatl and Dart System," used by humans in pre-historic times, is remarkably complex in its design. With a minimum of effort, the atlatl hurtles darts at speeds close to 100 miles per hour. In turn, this behavior speaks volumes about the sustainable ingenuity of the hunter-gatherer age. In our present age of taxes, organized religion, and agriculture, perhaps there are still important lessons that can be derived from our far distant relatives.

If you want to get technical it is a dart, not a spear. A spear does not have that tipe of dynamic complexity...a spear is merely just a large heavy staff that is a mele weapon...
