Scope of the article

[edit]

It seems odd to have an article on "Arab" archery that includes pre-Arab practices in Northern Africa. There is also nothing very distinctive about the thumb draw, probably derived from Turkish or other Central Asian ethnicities well afer the battle of Manzikert. I propose to remove both of these sections. Richard Keatinge (talk) 15:24, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge from Camel archer

[edit]

It was proposed at Talk:Camel cavalry#Merge proposal with Camel archer that Camel archer would be better moved here. That sounds very reasonable. Opinions welcome. Klbrain (talk) 10:36, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
