The bow and arrow was important because it was used to survive back in the first nation's days. It could save them them from predators and let them kill enough prey to stay alive. This was the main source of weapon to fight in war. It was like our gun but more complicated to use.
The development of the bow and arrow enabled hunters to effectively kill game animals from distances greater than those allowed through the use of simple spears and slings. The other primary advantages over spears and slings are that many arrows can be carried in the quiver (as opposed to only a few spears in the hand) and less actual motion is needed to use the bow (as opposed to the sling being twirled around prior to releasing the stone).
Bows and arrows became so popular, because the previous method of shooting arrows was the crossbow. The crossbow was heavy and could only shoot a few arrows a minute. The much lighter bow and arrow could shoot many arrows in a minute. It was a vast improvement in shooting arrows. Bows cost a lot less than crossbows, and could be made from nearby trees. The crossbow needed a lot of work to be constructed.
