Description: Hunting Deer: Before this piece was drawn, the natives hunted for subsistence, calling the act "stepping onto the grass". The act became a custom instead: those above the age of 10 trained with the bow to the point where they shoot with unerring accuracy up to thirty, forty paces. When the grass grew lush in spring, the tribes harkened to the call for the hunt, bringing all tools and hunting dogs. They hunted in all directions, piercing the throats of deer for blood and roasting rabbits and fowls on spits. The innards were gathered and fermented to be a delicacy called "meat shoots" The skins and furs were traded with the Han Chinese for salt, rice, tobacco, cloths and other items.
