An ancient bow drill is device that looks like a bow with a string. A piece of wood with a point is spun at high speed using the bow and string to drill a hole, usually in wood.
A bow drill uses a simple bow-like device to turn a spindle against a block. The bow drill is likely one of the earliest form of drilling tool, found pictured in ancient Egyptian tombs dating back to at least the Third Dynasty, over 2600 BCE. Bow drills were used by Native Americans and other indigenous populations for fire starting by friction. Because a bow drill is very difficult to describe, click the related link below for a good picture and description of a bow drill.

The bow-drill was invented in the upper Paleolithic period, which broadly dates to between 49,257 & 14,117 years ago.
The fire drill was a very simple technology known almost everywhere in ancient times. It is closely related to the drill used in making furniture, jewellery and boats and it used the principle that a piece of hardwood, when pressed firmly and rotated against a piece of softwood, generates heat by friction. The fire drill uses a flat piece of softwood with a small groove and hollow, into which the hardwood drill is placed vertically. The drill is rotated by means of a "bow" - a short stick with a cord which is wrapped twice around the drill. Downward pressure on the drill is also required. The drill does not produce flame or sparks, but hot embers from the softwood, charred by friction - these can then be used to start a fire. The first link below includes images of an ancient Egyptian fire drill (ignore the modern magnifying glass at the top of the page). The second link gives examples of many tools used in ancient Egypt, including the fire drill:
To drill holes in bone or wood.
The ancient people made the bow and arrows. The bow and the arrows are changing because of the people or inventor that wants to improve it. They created bowgun,the bow that using in archering etc.
An ancient Egyptian drill, often made from bronze or stone, was used primarily for boring holes in wood, metal, or stone. It operated by a rotary motion, typically powered by a bow-style mechanism that allowed the user to apply continuous pressure while rotating the drill bit. The design facilitated precision in creating holes for various purposes, including woodworking, jewelry-making, and tomb construction. This tool exemplifies the ingenuity of ancient Egyptian craftsmanship and their advancements in technology.
