There is a write up in the Dura report, which mentions them in use before the Mongols.
The Yrzi bow was found in a grave nottoo far from Dura.
The report also says they basic construction of the composite bow was wide spread from the Neolithic period....from the Mediterranean to Japan,
In Egypt in theOld Kingdom and Ancient Greece in the time of Homer. a pretty good spread, I would say!
