Madagascar - a lot more famous for its fauna than for its arsenal. VEry little if any is studied or published in the matter. Local reigns eventually prior to Europeans eliminated eachoters leadership but no significant battles or armies. A Polish commander took the island claiming it for France without much oposition. Pirate activity was fructuos on the coast, pre and post slave trade. Many utopic idea have been projected by Europeans for this island, the most absurd & outrageous and one belonged to the nazi Fuhrer, who contemplated plan "Madagaskar" according to which all Jews from Germany and eventually Europe would be relocated on this island.
There isnt even much of a record for hunting weapons from the natives. I suspect bow and arrow, spears and chopping machetes are what I suspect it was used.
