“射”是中国古代最古老的体育运动之一。所谓“射”即是射箭,是产生于原始社会的“射猎”活动。1963年,在山西朔州峙峪文化遗址出土的石镞证明,我国旧石器时代晚期的先民就已使用弓箭来射杀猎物。“射术”在出现之初并不是一项体育运动,而是古代抵御天灾、造福人间的手段,史前就有“后羿射日”的神话故事, “Shoot ” is one of the oldest sports in ancient China. The so-called “shoot ” that is, archery, is generated in primitive society “hunting ” activities. In 1963, the stone clam unearthed at the Shizuoyu cultural site in Shuozhou, Shanxi Province proved that the ancestors of the late Paleolithic China had already used archery to shoot their prey. “Shooting technique” was not a sport at the beginning of the emergence, but an ancient method of fighting natural disasters and benefiting human beings. There is a myth of prehistoric history of “Hou Yi’s shooting the sun”
