Description
How did the Turks shoot such powerful and accurate arrows? This small archery tool, known as the zihgir, was a curved ring worn on the thumb. It protected the thumb from direct contact with the bowstring, reducing strain during the draw. This allowed for a stronger pull, faster release, and more precise shooting. Beyond its function, it was also a status symbol, reflecting the wearer’s skill and identity.
