吹枪似乎在较早的时候就在东南亚发明了。它的发展发生在马来西亚文化区,特别是在婆罗洲。双管竹制武器、劈槽式木制武器和实心钻孔木制吹枪都是从简单的芦苇和竹制武器演变而来的。粘土弹可能先于飞镖成为导弹;飞镖最终中毒了。印尼的贸易和移民将吹笛枪带到了日本、南印度、马达加斯加和美拉尼西亚。吹笛枪在南美洲西北部(核心区)、中美洲大部分地区和美国东部也很普遍。美国的形式和用法与马来西亚的相似,可能反映了早期的跨太平洋接触。
ABSTRACT The blowgun appears to have been invented in Southeast Asia in relatively ancient times. Its elaboration took place in the Malaysian culture area, particularly in Borneo. Double-tube bamboo types, split-and-grooved wooden weapons, and solid bored wooden blowguns evolved from simple reed and bamboo forms. Clay pellets probably preceded darts as missiles; darts were eventually poisoned. Indonesian trade and migrations took the blowgun to Japan, South India, Madagascar, and Melanesia. Blowguns were also widespread in northwestern South America (the core area), much of Middle America, and the eastern United States. American forms and uses are similar to Malaysian ones and may reflect early transpacific contacts.
