黑白毛编抛石索是藏族人民的放牧用具。用双色牦牛毛编织而成。一头有套环,中部编成椭圆形。使用时中指伸入套环,在中部椭圆形部位放好石子儿,食指抓住末段,用力甩出,放开末段,石子儿就能飞出。牧民以此驱赶牲畜,是藏族传统放牧用具。

The stone-throwing rope is an instrument used for herding in Tibet. Woven with black and white yak hair, it has a loop at one end and an oval in the middle.Putting your middle finger in the loop and a cobblestone in the oval, you grasp the other end of the rope with your index finger and hurl it suddenly. The cobblestone will be tossed out. The stone-throwing rope is a traditional herding tool used by Tibetans.
编辑短评:同样都是简易的抛石工具,汉族小朋友用弹弓玩游戏、打鸟,藏族的小朋友可能就要用这个抛石索参加放牧劳动了。
