Interestingly enough, I believe both bows do apply force to the arrow. Chinese siege crossbows sometimes sport a similar setup. The fiber connection allows it to bend back with more force with both prods.
I think I can imagine how that works, but I’d really like to see it in action. Kinda clever, dem’ Cambodian Folks. Ah, one more question, when was the Cambodian Medieval period? Ah here it is…
“The mediaeval history of Cambodia starts roughly in the 10th century, when the Khmer Empire had established its strong foothold in Cambodia, and ended in the 19th century, when Vietnamese attacks started happening in Cambodia.”

I’m glad to see that at least one other person also has trouble spelling medival, mediaval, midiaeval, or whatever.

There even are modern bows applying that principle:
