Similar in many respects to the kaiila lance of the wagon peoples, though the hunting lance of the Red Savages is commonly longer, heavier and thicker than the war lance. They are commonly undecorated or adorned only with a knot or tuft of feathers. The point of a hunting lance is typically longer and narrower than the war lance, designed to pierce deeply enough to strike a kailiauk's heart. The shaft is shaped temwood. The tip is either metal, carved bone or shaped stone, lashed to the shaft with boiled sinew or rawhide, or attached with metal trade rivets. Leather grips, hand loops, and decorations are often present also. Described in book #17, Savages of Gor. |
