They would use tomahawks (a light ax, typically having a stone head - see image below), war clubs and daggers. However, as time evolved, they were eventually replaced to bows and arrows made from buffalo hides and metal. Because arrows' point is smaller than spears, they can easily penetrate the skin of an animal. Talk about technology! Another advantage is that it can shoot at a longer range, greater accuracy and possibility of continuous shots when compared to continuously throwing spears using barehands!

Weapons of the Plains Indians are very interesting to a lot of people that like to learn about it. Here are a couple of weapons they had to use. Knives, bows and arrows, tomahawks, gunstock war clubs, and guns. When the Europeans came they found the Native Americans. The Native Americans thought the Europeans had nice weapons like the following: steel knives, swords, fire-belching arquebus and cannons. The Fur Trade had brought lots of weapons for the Indians and the U.S. You would be amazed to learn about knives.
