A woomera is a spear throwing device. By placing the spear in the woomera, Australian aboriginals invented a way of using leverage on the spear that enabled it to go much further then a conventionally thrown spear. The woomera was usually made of hollow wood from a hollow tree. It was also as a knife, chisel, graver, digging stick and for cutting cooked fish. It was also used for looking for grubs.
The woomera was part of the Australian aboriginal hunters tools.
