Question

The Clovis culture used wooden devices called __________ to increase the force of a spear.

Answer 1

The answer is option D: Atlatls.

By the time the Clovis culture existed, they used spears as hunting weapons along with atlatls, a wooden device that gave velocity, and more power, accuracy, and control to the spear, than by being thrown by hand alone.

An atlatl consisted of a wooden "stick" with a handle on one end and a hook that engaged the spear on the other end.
