ARROWHEADS Bilobate heads appear to have first been developed in the Pontic Steppe area in the 8th century BC. Over time, the design of the arrowheads developed to suit different purposes. Narrower forms were ideal for penetrating armour or protective leather clothing. Trimming the design made the arrowheads lighter and more ideal for longer distances. Barbed arrowheads are designed to cause more damage upon impact and create larger wounds. Arrowheads were used in major Greek and Roman battles. The Greeks used archers in the army and navy and created a special archer corps around 480 BC. In 425 BC Athenian archers helped to defeat the Spartans at the Battle of Sphacteria. Odysseus was a legendary archer and his bow played a major role in Homer's epic poem the Odyssey. The Romans used mercenary auxiliary troops of archers to augment the Legions. Mounted archers were used during the Civil wars between Caesar and Pompei, Germanicus made use of bowmen against the Chatii and Septimus Severus used archers in Mespotamia.
