Macana

A macana is like a big stick used by people long ago. It was often made of wood and was used as a weapon for fighting or hunting. The macana was so powerful that it could knock down a person or an animal with just one hit! People would swing the macana back and forth to build up lots of force behind it before hitting their target. The macana was used by many different groups of people all over the world, but nowadays there are more modern ways of fighting or hunting that don't require a big stick.
