Wherever they lived, primitive peoples adapted to their environments and learned to make use of whatever natural materials they had to thrive in the wilds. Every primitive culture, with the exception of Australia's Aboriginals, utilized some form of primitive bow and arrow. But that presented a special survival challenge for those living in the arctic regions where good bow wood was nonexistent. Enter the cable backed bow. Using this ancient primitive technology, the natives of arctic regions used scraps of driftwood and whale bone to build powerful primitive survival bows. If you'd like to get into bow making but don't have access to good bow wood, this might be the way forward. I'm using paracord for the backing cable and bow string but those could be replaced with natural materials such as rawhide, gut, sinew, or plant fibers if you want to build a more primitive bow. If you're into gaming, you may know this as the thehunter cable backed bow.
