Chenchu bowman
This Chenchu man demonstrates how to use a bow and arrow. Although Chenchus did hunt, their catch was typically meagre (a jungle-fowl or two). The bamboo bow, strung with deer sinew, is used with bamboo arrows, some tipped with iron. He wears the typical cloth penis cover held up by a twisted fibre.
