History of Tomahawks | HawkThrowing.com
An example of a steel blade and a stone-headed tomahawk- The tomahawks originated from the Algonquian Indians in Native America. The term tomahawk was derived from the Algonquian words “tamahak” or “tamahakan." The Native American Indians regularly used tomahawks made from stone heads which were attached to wooden handles secured by strips of rawhide. They used tomahawks for general uses such as hunting, chopping, cutting, or mainly as a weapon.
