Does an atlatl lengthen how far a dart goes compared to hand throwing the dart? Purpose The purpose of the experiment was to find out if the atlatl truly does increase the distance that a dart can travel, compared to just using an arm, on average. If it does increase the distance, than this knowledge could be used to understand how using the atlatl affected the way paleolithic Europeans survived, as there would have likely been less accidents killing prey, as they could be farther away, but…
