Hymn 9 to Artemis
Arrows are the weapons that mark Artemis's divine character and hunting identity.
Muse, sing of Artemis, sister of the Far-shooter, the virgin who delights in arrows, who was fostered with Apollo.
Rigveda
Arrows fashioned from feather, bone, sinew, and iron, addressed directly and sent to strike enemies while granting shelter to the warrior.
may Soma speak for us, may Aditi grant us shelter.
where men run together and apart, there may the arrows grant shelter to us.
fly to the enemies, strike among them — do not leave any one of these alive.
