👉 The boulder weapon, also known as a rock-throwing weapon or slingstone, is a simple yet effective projectile weapon consisting of a ball-shaped piece of stone or metal attached to a leather thong or cord. It is typically thrown using the arm, with the user aiming and releasing the stone at high speed to strike a target. The effectiveness of this weapon depends on the weight, size, and shape of the stone, as well as the user's throwing technique. Despite its rudimentary design, the boulder weapon has been used for centuries across various cultures, from ancient Greece to medieval times, demonstrating its enduring utility in combat and hunting.
