Scythian composite bow. Made of natural materials. The base of the bow is
wood. Sinew on the outer side of the limbs. Black horn on the inner side of
them. Sinew bandage. This bow is the exact copy of the original made with the
same method as a thousand years ago,and consists of only natural components.The
core of bow is joined together of assorted kinds of wood.The inside ( that is
on the archer’s side) is made of horn plating.The outside is made of tendon
strings and fishbladder-glue layered and shrunk onto the bow.These layers are
sensitive to moisture,so it is covered with bi birsh-bark.The handle and tips
are stiffened with horn and strengthened at the joinings with tying.The horn
plating is made of water buffalo horn.
