But, through history, the arrow has also symbolized war, power, swiftness, the rays of the sun, knowledge... as well as deities such as the Greek god //Apollo// and goddess //Artemis// (both hunters), the Hindu  weather god, //Rudra//; and various gods of sexual attraction: //Eros// (Greek), //Cupid// (Roman), //Kama// (Hindu).... On ancient Roman coins, it represented the Zoroastrian god, //Mithra//. The native American Cheyenne warriors revered the "//sacred medicine arrows//" as symbols of male power. Arrows held by skeletons would point to disease or death. Today, they usually just point in the preferred direction. **===
