My guess is that it has to be Robbing Hood's arrow *Genghis Khan died from being thrown from his horse after naming one of his sons as his successor http://class.et.byu.edu/mfg201/Lecturenotes/lecture19.htm * Captain Cook was bludgeoned to death. * ' With Stanley's supplies Livingstone continued his explorations, but he was weak, worn out and suffering from dysentery. Then, on the morning of April 30, 1872, his two African assistants found him dead, still kneeling at his bedside, apparently praying when he died.' http://home.vicnet.net.au/~neils/africa/livingstone.htm * Kirklees has been known as the place of Robin Hood's burial since at least the early sixteenth {century;} but just how long the grave has actually existed remains a mystery. The eighteenth century garland version of Robin Hood's Death, tells us that the dying outlaw chose his own burial place by shooting his last arrow from a window in the nunnery ('And where this arrow is taken up, There shall my grave digged {be');}
