A formal training area for tribal warriors to perfect battle skills and learn necessary discipline.
Protecting family and land is the first responsibility for a young warrior. Learning weapon skills during the hunt gives a man the skills of a fighter; learning to fight alongside others makes him a useful warrior, and a credit to his tribe.
Historically, warriors used the bow and arrow with astounding skill, thanks to constant hunting. Other daily tools such as the hatchet-like tomahawk were useful in war too. Oddly, in some tribes it was the custom to bury tomahawks once a war was ended (hence “bury the hatchet”). The tribes, however, never developed an organised approach to warfare to match that of the European invaders.
