content: Described on p. 481 of USNM AR for 1891: "bow (Hwal). Curved Tatar form made of bamboo and horn wound with ox sinew, wrapped with green leather at the nocks and lacquered black. When unstrung it is strongly recurved. Length 44 inches. This bow is probably intended for boys' practice. Korean bows are very powerful, two men being required to string them, and painful and serious accidents sometimes occur should the bow slip during the operation."
