The bow and arrow was invented in the Paleolithic or early Mesolithic period. The oldest bows ever found came from the Holmegard swamp in Denmark and were made of elm. The bow and arrow changed the way humans lived in the same way guns and black powder has influenced human life in more (relatively) recent times. Almost all civilizations, including the Persians, Macedonians, Nubians, Greeks, Koreans, Indians, Japanese, and Chinese fielded large numbers of archers in their armies to great effect and success. Archers were especially effective against massive military formations, but once the gun was developed, archery in military combat became obsolete, with even primitive guns being far superior in terms of range and ease of use. Now archery is a celebrated pastime and Olympic sport.
