what bow

[thomas h]

while surfing the  net  on  primitive bows i  found an  odd at least to me bow  it was 62" in length and round it was tapered to the  nocks  it looked like an English long bow but round on the front an back  now  i cant find it  or one that ecen  looks like it does anyone  know what i seen.

I believe some of the primitive African bows were round in cross section.
