Brief History

Over 40,000 years ago, the first blowguns began to appear in many different parts of the world. Although crude, these primitive weapons were extremely accurate. It is not known exactly where blowguns originated, however, it is generally believed that they appeared simultaneously in many parts of the world. Back then blowguns were made from bamboo or other hollowed out woods. Blowguns are still used today for hunting by Amazonian Indians in South American, and by Pygmies in Africa. They were also used by the Ninja prior to 1500 in Japan for silent assassination with poison darts.

Earliest evidence of blowguns appeared in parts of Africa and Asia. Blowguns are still used today by the Dyak tribe of headhunters in Borneo for hunting and as weapons in tribal wars. Using hollowed out bamboo tubes, which reach lengths of over 20 feet and darts made out of reeds, the Dyak are very capable hunters. In the tropical areas of Africa, the Pygmies use blowguns to hunt their prey of small game. Around 1500 in Japan, Ninja assassins used blowguns to kill in complete silence using poisoned darts used in the blowgun. The Ninja also used the blowgun for diversions by shooting darts in different directions to make the enemy believe they were surrounded.
