Quote: Here is an interesting group of Roman lead slingshot, all are the usual egg shape, some showing signs of being used. These items were in use from Republican times right through to the end of the Roman empire, but generally lead slingshot went out of fashion during the 2nd century AD.

Is this true? Was a spread of the bow weapon responsible?
