L'artefact
Blow gun
Description
Blow gun made from the wood of the purple heart tree.
The inner tube is made of reed which does not warp or become crooked.
The sight used for aiming the gun is the front teeth of the agouti, a small rodent-like animal similar to a rabbit.
It is used to propel darts which are dipped in Hurali poison, often referred to as curare.
Informations d'arrière-plan
The poison was made from a mixture of bark scrapings and snake venom, which is boiled in water for two days, then strained and left to evaporate into a heavy paste.
The poison does not pass through the digestive system, ensuring that animals killed with the darts are safe to eat.
The potency of the poison is tested by counting the number of leaps a frog would take after being pricked.
Death from a dart dipped in curare and fired from a blow gun would take one to two minutes for a bird, up to 10 minutes for a small animal and up to 20 minutes for a large animal.
