The Defense and Freedom blog has an outstanding essay on primitive weapons.
He leads off the essay with the double bow which is NOT the best part of the essay. The best part is below the video and is titled "Third, some general remarks on non-firearm weapons:"
The author gives a very quick and precise rundown on a wide variety of pre-firearms weapons listing key visual features, effective tactics, economics of production and effectiveness against infantry, horse and armor.
