From there, it explores the origins of the word "rainbow" and the history of the bow as a tool. The discussion begins with the idea that a rainbow comes from "rain bow" and expands to how ancient archery shaped human history, as well as the possibility that the shape of a bow influenced stringed musical instruments.
