Primitive hunting weapon. I am unsure of exact age. Please view photos. It is 34" in length.Bolas� (from� Spanish� bola, "ball", also known as� boleadoras, or Inca� ayllo) is a type of throwing weapon made of weights on the ends of interconnected cords, designed to capture animals by entangling their legs. They were most famously used by the� gauchos(Argentinian cowboys), but have been found in excavations of� Pre-Columbiansettlements, especially in� Patagonia, where indigenous peoples used them to catch 200-pound� guanaco� (llama-like mammals) and� ñandú� (birds). They were also used in battle by the� Inca army. They have also been found as a modern-day tool in� North America� at the� Calico Early Man Site.
