Atlatl Mechanics: Launch Physics and Hunting Applications (Part 3)

This is the third and final installment of our series on ancient weapon technology. After exploring the global history (Part 1) and mechanical anatomy (Part 2) of the atlatl, we now dive into the bio-mechanics of the launch sequence, calculate its kinetic energy, and examine its real-world hunting capabilities.
