Antiquarian researches show that the oldest type of plow, the so-called hook-plow, was developed out of a wooden hook used as a hoe and that it consisted of a single limb or root 36 THE HOME OF THE of a tree with a shortened and sharpened branch. It had only two parts, the pole for drawing and the hook that broke bnt did not turn the soil. In early times a handle was add- ed if one had not been left on when the limb was cut from the tree, and numerous stones have been found among Neolithic rema...ins which ap- parently had been attached to make the primi- tive plow more penetrating and more durable.
Prehistoric wooden plows of the Bronze Age have been found in West Prussia, Jutland, and elsewhere. The plow is extremely old, but it developed very slowly. A rock-carving in Sweden which belongs to the Bronze Age shows a plow of the primitive kind, but drawn by two oxen and provided with a handle. The Greeks of the 8th century B.C. must have used almost as antiquated an implement ; Hesiod 10 speaks of the farmer 's cutting an oak in the forest for his plow and of there being two sorts, one in which the several parts were fastened together, and the other made of a single piece of wood.
