Composite bows in antiquity?

[Epictetus]

Out of curiousity, were bows made out of composite materials in use during antiquity? I saw a documentary crediting them to the Mongols, but during some online searches I have seen their use placed in other locations at other times.

I've seen them mentioned in a few other threads, but the posts were ambiguous and the threads were about other issues. In order not to muddle those existing threads and topics I thought I would ask here.
