Materials

Description
Spears were used by the Native Americans to thrust and strike their enemies or the animals they were hunting. The spears were made of a short blade or tip, made from stone, and attached to the end of a long wooden handle or shaft. Some variations did not even have a stone tip. Instead, the shaft was simply sharpened at one end. Spears could also be thrown as ranged weapons.
Long lances were used by horse riders to knock off their enemies from their horses. A lance provided Native Americans with leverage and protection during battle. They would often decorate their lances using feathers and scalps to give them an intimidating appearance.
