Native American Bow ??

[ishi1archer]

I just picked this bow up on fleabay. It was hard to see from the pictures but I though it looked like it might be native american so I bought it. It is rectanguler in cross section and measures 37" long. It's 1 1/8" wide x 5/8" thick at the handle and the tips are 3/4" wide x 3/8" thick. It has a deorative notch and scalope design carved down both sides. It has double nock on one end and single nock on the other end.Does anybody have any ideas in dating or where it was made would help. Thanks Scott
