Women's Bow and Arrow Pendant or Keychain in Sterling Silver – Lakota Legacy Line

In his book "The Lakota Way," Joseph M. Marshall III beautifully described the bow and arrow:

“In balance and symmetry is beauty and strength. There are many ways to describe it, to give it an image, but I prefer most the story with a bow and arrow which was often at a heart of marriage ceremonies in the old days. A very old man perform the ceremony in those days and he talked to all the people who gathered. In his hands, he would hold the bow and arrow, explaining that the bow without the arrow is of no use, likewise for the arrow. If a bow is seen alone, one wonders where the arrow is. The same is true of the arrow because one without the other there is not balance, but the relationship of the bow and arrow is more than togetherness. In order for them to be effective the arrow must fly true, and to do that it must be perfectly straight, yet no matter how straight the arrow can fly it can’t reach the target unless the bow is strong. One cannot fulfill its purpose without the other.”
