Watched, Josh Bernstein, on the History Channel yesterday. He had a program about how Tutankhamun met his demise. He was leaning toward homicide at first, but as the pgm warmed up, gave way to an accident that caused a broken femor--during the pgm, it showed the various war implements burried with the boyking...alot of bows and arrows, spears, swords, & chariots, etc....and a woven sling.
As pharoah, he was supposed to drive a pair of horses and shoot bow and arrow single-handed (tied reins behind his back (to demonstrate his kingly prowess) ...got to hand it to, Bernstein, as he demonstrated how it was done...all the other archers had drivers. I'm guessing if he could do this, he could probably also sling from the chariot too. (?)
