👉 The pine weapon, also known as the "pine spear" or "pine thrust," is a type of throwing weapon used by ancient peoples, particularly in Europe and Asia. It consists of a wooden shaft, typically made from a straight, sturdy branch or tree trunk, with one end reinforced by a sharp point or notch. The spearhead is often made of flint, bone, or metal, designed to pierce through armor and flesh. To use, the user would hold the shaft at an angle, release the spear, and follow through with a swift motion to propel it forward. This weapon was effective against both armored and unarmored opponents, making it a versatile tool in ancient warfare.
